    I was up 200 points on my position, I could neither close nor amend my stop and looking at current price can see my stop has been hit. 

    I live in the UK and called 4 times, each call was dropped until a few mins ago when I finally got through and had to disconnect the call after being on hold for 5 minutes incurring international call charges in addition to the losses incurred through no fault of my own

    I'd like to know what your recourse plan is. Thanks

    its not good its effected my trading day too

    yes, gbpjpy was good though the spread was always quite high, used to be around 4 points min. didn't like chf so much because the SNB could and regularly did step in at any time and turn everything upside down, and of course for for a very long time in 2014 had pegged the chf to the euro and caused the famous black swan event when they suddenly removed it, ended up costing IG 10s of millions when clients couldn't pay up their losses. .

    yes i saw that highlighted on youtube [unfortunately ] gb/jpy not bad for short term especially  during issues  around brexit, as high volatility .i find chf pairs are the most quirky the way they move, but they can also be one of the more predictable  around support  and resistance i feel,  but that was obviously  an exception

    the reason being that around 2017 overall FX volatility was dropping steadily which meant smaller swings which made things increasingly difficult intraday while indices volatility was increasing so I switched. FX vol has been increasing ok for the last 8 months or so though.

    Also indices priced against the national currency are not so back and forth like 2 FX pairs are constantly fighting it out, indices are more singularly directional. 

    how about GBP/JPY, NZD/JPY or some of  the CHEF pair they quite volatile usually 

  4. is that forex pairs too when carried over 10 pm weds and obvious  weekend  as ,always paid more than one day when this applies,this was explained too by a IG representative when query  it on another occasion  

  5. I Don't  Know im sick of constantly  been exploited  by these people, i query  the large adjustments  fees the other day on the Australian 200, it was much greater than they published,  i contacted them twice and they failed to respond. Not to mention much wider spreads so they can fleece as much as possible off the newbies during the lockdown
