Hi, I was using mt4 all day Friday with no problems.

MT5 is a separate platform and not used by IG so ignore (you must have got that from metatrader not IG). 

If you downloaded mt4 from IG it will still be in your download folder.

Assuming you've already set up a live mt4 account with IG and have had it up and running previously check the version of mt4 you are using, 'Help' > 'About'   , it must be build 1170 or later, earlier versions are no longer supported.

Check the IG demo and Live feeds are open and that the ping has returned;

'File' > 'Open an Account'

The IG mt4 download put in your download folder is labeled 'ig4setup' and the other pictured below is the additional IG apps pack.

    • Hi @Nate,  Unfortunately, purchasing Gold on IG isn't available, even if it's digital gold that you can buy, hold, and later sell for updated rates. However, with IG, you can trade Gold on our CFD and Spreadbet platforms using Leverage/Margin and capitalize on price differences. You have the option for spot trading or trading futures, holding positions as long as you have sufficient funds to cover your Margin. It's important to note that with spot trading, you'll incur daily interest fees for the leverage used, whereas futures trading doesn't involve additional interest fees as they are covered within our spread.  I agree that storing gold like Smaug isn't always ideal. You have to constantly worry about Dwarves, Elves, or even Hobbits! Jokes aside, you can research how to trade commodities on our platform with leverage and decide what suits you best. All the best, AshishIG
    • Hi, Placed £200 in a Gold Future deal but when it slightly goes down in value my leftover funds are being used and my equity is raised. Why are my leftover funds being used? Can I not just put everything in gold and keep a 100% equity in the deal? wont loose money unless I sell right?
