no problem, you need to open mt4 so if downloaded from IG there should be IG mt4 icon on your desktop, double click to open mt4 and look in File tab (top left corner) of mt4.

you don't need to connect to metatrader as you should be connected to IG instead,

you seem to have the feed as the chart has opened.

Right click on any where in 'Market Watch' and click 'Show all' (see pic).

Also see https://www.ig.com/uk/trading-platforms/metatrader-4/what-is-mt4-how-to-use-it

and also download the IG app add ons.

no you don't need to connect to metatrader at all, just IG.  So you don't need metatrader's mt4 or their feed, just the ones provided by IG. 

so go back to my first post above and check you have IG's live and demo feed, as per my picture.

to set up IG just click on each feed (live or demo) in turn and click 'next' and follow the instructions. For the live account you will need the info sent in 2 emails from IG, one with your login and one with your password. For demo account mt4 assigns a random one automatically.

just seen you are looking for the metatraders 'signal service', you do that from the mt4 platform, it will have sent you mail, click on the 'Terminal' tab and see pic below

the page has links to a number of articles and a video so study them first, you need to set up an account etc.

I read all the information but it look like it is impossible from IG to follow metatrader signal, I think IG blocked them 

[Caseynotes]

I don't use the signals service but just looked and IG are listed here in the 'select Broker' drop down box, select IG live or demo and try from there. see pic.
