  1. I might be being too harsh. I've read that many others experience problems with their brokers' online platform and that it has been common over the years on various providers. And I myself haven't tried any other platforms to compare IG with. So there's that.
  2. It's not rare, but the blame-shifting and denial suggests that IG has a lot of internal office politics and won't invest the money and time required to fix it. Bad sign. Apropos:
  3. Here it comes. Hunker down, button (batten?) down the hatches, drown your miseries, and slit your wrists. 😿
  4. You need a stable system before you have a 24/7 one
  5. I thought the balance of probability is in favour of the prior trend when it comes to consolidation patterns?
  6. It should be obvious to everyone by now that there won't be a 'chaotic no deal' so the pound has definitely bottomed out IMHO. Shouldn't there be more demand for the pound considering the interest rate is higher than in Euroland, Japan and now even the U.S. ....
  7. You might be thinking of ISAs. Anyway - speak to an accountant.
  8. The status page is a load of cr@p ... If they are sweeping this under the carpet and not acknowledging the problem then that's a huge red flag, time to look for another broker.
  9. How can you get away with advertising 24/7 trading when 1) There isn't 24/7 trading 2) Even during the hours that we can trade, the platform is liable to become unusable? Why can't you advertise 24/5 and ensure uptime and reliability?
  10. Short the sh!t out of this one
  11. Today's IC Trader is 'square' on S&P 500 and thinks that the market is overconfident. But then that old girl has been wrong in the past
  12. Apropos: https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-oil-opec-outlook/opec-sees-its-oil-market-share-shrinking-lowers-demand-view-idUKKBN1XF10O
  13. Personally ... I don't look at hour charts any more. Daily and weekly, mainly.
  14. Your hourly chart for S&P 500 does look like a correction is coming, not necessarily a huge drop though.
  15. @Mercury Have you started using IG's web platform charts?
  16. This is actually a very profound point. Ultimately, the source of all wealth is human labour and the world around us (and the raw materials it provides). Everything is made from a combination of those two things
  17. IMHO the only oscillator that has any usefulness is the RSI, all the others are far too noisy and generate more false signals than useful ones. 😋
