Companies earnings should include analyst expected revenues and EPS and when actuals are published, this should be shown too. These earnings should also show if the company is reporting pre/after market close.

Tesla shares slump 7% after Q3 numbers

Supply chain issues continue to stalk #TSLA as the electric vehicle manufacturer reported earnings roughly in line while revenue was a bit short of consensus.

I would love for IG to link to TradingView like most reputable brokers. This is long overdue, and would make trading more simple. Please give this a serious consideration.
thanks so much

Hi @CNA

Thanks for reaching out.

Apologies we are unable to be specific with a time frame however there are a number of moving parts. IG on TradingView can possibly expect it live around Q1, 2023 We will continue to give updates and feedback.

I picked contract for difference because i would want the minimum amount required for trading cfd shares to be reduced to 100 dollars to make it easy for everyone and also commission charges reduced if possible. Also i picked the others because i really appreciate their content and also helps in improving my trades.Thank you

Ability to trade actual futures contracts with fixed commissions per contract Vice CFDs on futures where spreads come into play. Also incorporate with TradingView as their charting software allows for many more indicators such as volume profile, fixed VWAP etc.

Hi I have 2 issues to note. The first is that many charts show the incorrect price on weekends, this making analysis complicated. The issue seems to resolve during trading hours but is very inconvenient out of trading hours. In addition, many shares show crazy price spikes, such as Walmart today. https://prnt.sc/0tFoIV5Wbdip

The second suggestion I wish to make is to offer the choice of tabs being across the top or on the left side of the page. When I add many charts to a tab, I can't see the share name. https://prnt.sc/gxGoY1sMJnDl Thanks

Advanced Order Types
I'd like to be able to construct an advanced order type and then have it 'clickable' as part of my workspace. As an example I'd like to be able to construct an order:

Buy 2x of CFD
Sell Stop at distance Z (Stop Loss Order)
AND ... this is the important bit....
2 resting limit orders (Sell 1x at price A and Sell 1x at price B) to exit. Note the execution of 1st limit sell automatically adjusts the StopLoss order.

I should be able to place this order with a single 'click' on the chart.

ProRealtime appears to possess this capability (user manual/help file/videos) but it's disabled?

This would make the trade execution and part-position trade management in short times frames very efficient.
Just a thought

Firstly I am very pleased with the information IG provides.

As to improvements

On share trading I would like to be able to set a stop buy, that is a buy order if the price increases to a set amount, and at the same time to set a stop loss if the order is filled.

I would also like a real time stock scanner which has OCHLV data, historic volume, market cap, VWAP

Also I would like to see and be able to trade many more smaller uk companies on Level 2

And be able to access the app on my phone to see all the market graphs and data that are provided at the same time as using level2 on my computer.

Kind Regards

Hi, please show 'Margin Held' for open positions.

Search Filter for Stocks by % moved up or down or Market Cap or ability to Remove or Omit stocks that aren't even tradeable.

Show 'Spread' on all stock. It's available on the App but not the desktop.

Back Testing for sure.

Thanks

Hello,

It would be great if we were able to place trades with our stop loss being a percentage of our balance - e.g 1% of the account balance being set for the stop loss, without having to manually entering value per point . This would make placing trades quicker and easier.

Please, please remove 20 minute delays on stock prices, these cripple your trading platform. No amount of customer engagement, marketing, PR will overcome the fact that every time I look at the IG platform it is crippled, actually incorrect, and that there is still an old-school make money by removing functionality business model at IG.

Can you allow for smaller and fractional sizing of contracts ... as many contract sizes are too large for retail traders - especially Commodities.
The fractional sizing would allow for more accurate money management/position sizing.

Given that it's all just numbers handle by computers - it should matter whether your order is 0.10 / 1.0 / 10 or 1,000 etc - would it not?

Your Risk Mgt/Market Marking again would be off an aggregate of numbers - so again, it shouldn't matter, if individual trades are 0.1 or 1,000 etc.

It would also allow trader to explore these larger markets - with small sizes with REAL money - as a Demo account is psychologically not the same as a Live account.

And from your perspective you would be getting greater turnover / commissions etc
And I'm sure your are aware your major competitors have significantly smaller sizes allowed?
You are giving away market share to them in this area??

Morgan Stanley may say Rolls-Royce shares are ‘woefully mispriced’, but I do not think it is time to jump in for a bargain. Their view appears to be based mainly on an optimistic outlook of future earnings from a global aviation recovery.

The aviation sector, with greater demands on environmental costs, will be challenging. In defence, economic and national security will be high on western government agendas as they reassess future requirements. This is more likely to result in greater spending from which Rolls Royce should benefit. Schell, President of the Power Systems division is to leave the company at the end of the year but on a positive note, the order book is said to be strong.

I do not think the fundamentals are aligned for a long-term buy. Looking at risk (liquidity and solvency) a concern is interest cover. More generally, the company’s Altman Z score should be a signal of concern. My measure of management effectiveness does not indicate either profitability or efficiency is yet in good shape. A return to profitability is good news but the lack of a dividend does not help the situation. Future growth looks promising and is important in helping assess value but they are estimates and for me, there is simply too much uncertainty around the company to buy at the moment or to think the company is significantly undervalued.

On the technical side, the long-term trend is still down, with the price settled around what I see as a support level.

From a long-term investment perspective, I do not think Rolls Royce is an immediate buy but possibly worth watching. A recovery stock requires stronger fundamentals than those Rolls Royce possesses right now. However, in the nearer term the price may yet return to the 135p – 140p levels we have already witnessed since the dramatic fall from 344p in early 2019, although a fair valuation probably sits around 100p.

Thanks for sharing @Greenmantle

Hi

1. Would be nice to see Total gain or loose when dealing with shares or others staff especially when trading shares $$. I mean if 01.01.2022 i bought 100 shares for 10$ on ratio 1.24 GBP/US and would like to see for example 3 days later if im on gain or loose when price is 11$ and rate 1.23. Not like now i need to go to history and check how much GBP i paid for 100 shares in dolars and simulate sell 100 shares to see what GBP i will get from trade.
2. Incoming dividends window would be nice like file below.

3. If in total in paid in on account 40k would like to see somewhere gain or loose from 40k not only gain or loose from open positions.

ProRealTime platform is wonderful is there a way of making the platform a standard (ie free) to IG platform users?

How much does ProRealTime cost?

As an IG client you get ProRealTime charts free for your first month. After that, you still won’t pay for ProRealTime if you trade at least four times in a given month.

If you don't, or your trading activity is of extremely low value, you’ll pay a £30 fee on the last day of every month.

Hi, do not know if this is the place to ad this comment but I am an IG customer using the ProRealTime platform which I love except for the following:

Most of the charts on ProRealTime is perfect but almost all the big name stock especially the ones with (All Sessions) in brackets behind the name has a lot of tails on the Candlesticks which is completely wrong most of the time and let me to not trade those at all and also makes me sceptic with other charts with long tails on the candlesticks. WILL BE NICE IF TGHIS PROBLEM CAN BE FIXED AS I HAVE SEND NUMEROUS EMAILS REGARDING THIS- Samples:

Request: I do not know if this will be possible but it would be real real nice if there can be a indicator that shows the Elliott waves on the charts.

Thank you.
