    SENTIMENT INDICATORS: USING IG CLIENT SENTIMENT
    The IG Client Sentiment (IGCS) is unique, proprietary and potentially helpful to traders. The article will outline the following illustrative points:
    What is IG Client Sentiment (IGCS)? Sentiment Indicators IGCS as a Leading Indicator IGCS as a Technical Indicator: Summary WHAT IS IG CLIENT SENTIMENT (IGCS)?
    IG Client Sentiment (IGCS) is a tool that traders can use in conjunction with a broader technical and/or fundamental strategy. IGCS incorporates retail trader positioning (long and short) to formulate a sentiment bias. This is represented in percentage form (see image below) which aids traders in identifying market imbalances which could lead to possible opportunities.
    IGCS on EUR/USD:
    SENTIMENT INDICATORS
    Sentiment indicators are few and far between. The two most well-known are open interest in options, which largely applies to stocks, and the Commitment of Traders Report (CoT). What sets IGCS apart is the large sample size of retail traders which deliver more usable data in terms of indicator readings, multiple market data sets (FX, equities commodities) and timely updates for these markets which are refreshed several times daily.
    IGCS AS A LEADING INDICATOR
    The use of IGCS as a technical indicator can allow traders to confirm or refute signals produced by their wider trading strategy. Both fundamental and other technical techniques are used to gauge trends, ranges, potential reversals etc. so incorporating IGCS provides another layer of data to help verify a hypothesis.
    IGCS can be considered as a leading indicator as it uses past and current data to project possible future price movements however, as IGCS (retail) covers only one component of the market equation, traders should not rely solely on the IGCS tool for trading decisions. Simply put, retail traders contribute only a certain percentage of market input so naturally other factors will have influence on the respective market.
    For example, the EUR/USD chart below shows the projectible nature that can occur with IGCS. The highlighted are on the chart exhibits an increase in net short positions from retail traders which coincided with a rise in price action (EUR appreciation) on the price chart itself.
    IGCS EUR/USD:
    IGCS AS A TECHNICAL INDICATOR: SUMMARY
    We have shown how sentiment/IGCS can be a unique, proprietary and potentially helpful addition to a trader’s approach. In subsequent IGCS articles in this market sentiment sub-module, we will go through the implementation and flexibility of this tool in varying trading circumstances.

    Australia's Reserve Bank is continuing with quantitative easing and rock-bottom interest rates, while New Zealand is tightening up fiscal policy. With house prices skyrocketing in both countries, what could happen to AUD/NZD?

    Source: Bloomberg   Forex Inflation Australian dollar Australia Real estate economics Interest   There’s a chasm between Australia’s and New Zealand’s economic policies right now. Currently, 67% of IG clients are long on the AUD/NZD pair, with 1 AUD currently buying 1.05 NZD. But there’s no guarantee that the Australian dollar will strengthen anytime soon.
    AUD: rising inflation
    In November’s Statement of Monetary Policy, the Reserve Bank of Australia said that the ‘latest data and forecasts do not warrant an increase in the cash rate in 2022,’ instead forecasting that ‘an increase in the cash rate in 2023 could be warranted,’ if inflation and wage growth are ‘materially higher than they are at present.’ Moreover, it will continue to purchase government bonds until at least February 2022, at a pace of $4 billion a week. It’s already bought up $315 billion of bonds since March 2020.
    The report continued that ‘about two-thirds of the quarterly increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) was accounted for by sharp rises in two components: fuel prices and home-building costs.’ Increased construction costs were partially blamed on global material price increases — for example, timber is up 64% since July 2020 — but it also blamed demand created by the government’s Homebuilder subsidy.
    Accoring to CoreLogic, average house prices are up 18.4% in the year to September to $994,579, with prices rising by more than 30% in 45 regional areas. But because GDP shrank by 3% in September, Reserve Bank Governor Philip Lowe has said there is a ‘very low probability’ that rates will rise as it could stifle the economy further.
    As a result, the average mortgage rate is about 2.3% – 0.7 percentage points below inflation, which is likely to continue to rise. The Commonwealth Bank of Australia has predicted an 8% house price rise in 2022, before a 10% fall the year after. A forced rate rise at the wrong time could spell disaster for Australia’s housing market, AUD, and its economy as a whole.

    Source: Bloomberg New Zealand: rising interest rates
    Figures from the Real Estate Institute show that average house prices rose 31% over the year to July, to a record $937,000. Back in March, PM Jacinda Arden brought in new measures to cool the market, saying that ‘the last thing our economy and homeowners need is a dangerous housing bubble.’
    The income cap on government-backed First Home Grants was lifted from $85,000 to $95,000 for single buyers, and from $130,000 to $150,000 for couples. The holding time for investment properties to qualify for tax offsets was raised from five to 10 years, and investors were banned from offsetting interest expenses against rental income. Finance Minister Grant Robertson said that ‘we cannot afford to put the current economic recovery at risk by allowing house prices to spiral out of control,’ and announced $3.8 billion to speed up new build construction.
    And like its brother across the Tasman sea the Reserve Bank of New Zealand has also bought $53.5 billion of government bonds. However, unlike Australia, it ended the program on 23 July.
    But house prices continued to skyrocket. As inflation hit 4.9% in November, New Zealand's Reserve Bank raised the base interest rate to 0.75%, its second hike in as many months. It expects rates to rise to 2% by the end of 2023, with further increases possible in 2024. Eventually, it hopes the rising cost of monthly mortgage repayments will bring house prices back down.
    New Zealand has raised its base rate and stopped buying government bonds. Australia is continuing with its quantitative easing program and keeping its rate at rock-bottom. New Zealand might see its economic recovery falter, while Australia risks fuelling inflation and a housing market collapse.
    Meanwhile, the Evergrande threat from China still looms large. With £223 billion of debt, the potential collapse of the mammoth real estate developer could hit both Australia and New Zealand with destructive third-order contagion. 30% of China’s GDP is related to the housing market but average prices in the country fell 0.2% in October.
    The long-term impact on AUD/NZD depends on which domino falls first.

    Dear IG Community,

    As we are approaching the statements period. We would like to share some information on UK Consolidated Tax Certificates (CTC) statements. The aim of this post is to provide you with some key information on UK CTC statements release and hopefully clear out some questions you may have.


    1) What is a CTC ?

    It is a document for UK fiscal resident clients and is used to show the dividends received in a tax year and the breakdown of the different types of instruments that have paid them (shares, ETFs, REITs)

    2) Will I receive a CTC ?

    You will receive a CTC if you have received dividends during the tax year. If you haven’t received any dividends during the tax year you won’t receive a CTC.



    CTC's will not be generated for ISA or SIPP accounts. ISA and SIPP accounts are not tax reportable, so we don’t send out any tax documents for these accounts.
    For non-UK tax residents, an Income Summary can be provided on request

    3) Where can find my CTC ?

    You will be able to view and download your CTC (in pdf format) by going to My IG > Live accounts > Statements > Annual



    4) When will the CTC be available?

    Your CTC will ideally be ready around by end of July but it can be released later on. The reason why we can’t give a clear ETA is because there is delay between the end of financial year and when the statements are ready.

    This delay is due to the wait time for incomes to reach IG, for example US ETFs incomes tend to take longer before we receive the data. IG needs to receive incomes on our extensive list of international security types . The certificates are sent once all incomes has been received at IG and classified. 


    5) What will the statement contain?

    The format this year will be the same as previous year, a line by line and summarised description of domestic and overseas income received in GBP-equivalent.
    Please be aware that we do not provide any capital gains (sometimes called P&L) statements for share dealing accounts.
    We do not generate tax statement for spread betting accounts since spread betting does not attract capital gains tax or stamp duty in the UK
    You can find further information on the link here https://www.ig.com/uk/help-and-support/accounts-and-statements/statements/what-statements-will-i-receive


    For Australian clients:

    The process is similar. We will provide you with further information once the AUS office update us on the 2022 statements.

    If you need further information please comment below.

    All the best - Arvin

    Please see the expected dividend adjustment figures for a number of our major indices for the week commencing 10th January 2022. These are projected dividends and likely to change. IG cannot be held responsible for any changes made.
    Dividends highlighted in red include a special dividend, therefore some or all of the amount will not be adjusted. Amount in brackets is the expected adjustment after special dividends excluded (where shown on major indices). Dividend adjustments due to be posted on a bank holiday will usually be posted on the previous working day. 
    If you have any queries or questions on this please let us know in the comments section below. For further information regarding dividend adjustments, and how they affect  your positions, please take a look at the video.
     

    NB: All dividend adjustments are forecasts and therefore speculative.
    A dividend adjustment is a cash neutral adjustment on your account.
