Sorry, basically I would just like to know - when you view the price chart with the 2 STD indicator within it - say in the daily chart, or the minute chart - how high/low do you set the 'LinRegPeriod'? Because the position of the STD lines is obviously dependant on what the LinRegPeriod is set at. For example when I hear a tip that a certain stock is currently at 2 STDs on the daily chart, well that all depends on what the LinRegperiod is set at right? I suppose what I am asking is, is there an authoritative number of units that are to be used? i.e. If I view the 10 minute chart set at 1000 units which would display the last 1000 10 minute interval candles, and adjusted the LinRegPeriod to fit that 1000 units, the STD lines would obviously be situated differently than in the, say, 10 minute chart set at 200 units. Sorry if this makes absolutely no sense! I am using my time on furlough to learn day, swing trading. FOMO really. Everyone is raving about it so I just have to find out for myself. Green as grass really. Any help as always much appreciated, Cheers, Rob

Hi again, I'm back with another question (sorry). I am not even sure how to articulate it but here goes... Hi again, I have just realised - I guess you may already know - but the 1 STD line that you revealed to me - the one built in on PRT is actually 2 STDs but the 1st line (above and below the mean line) is not shown
-
Also need to know when news releases are coming so you don't get dumped on. IG have a Economic Calendar for that.

Ah there it is. I was actually referring to the prorealcode STD channel which has 2 standard deviations (5 lines), I downloaded it from prorealcode.com (people create there own indicator and then share them on there, and this is on there). Anyhow never mind, this 1 STD is also very helpful. I don't even think that 2 STDs are necessary anyway actually as the price rarely if ever breaches it, as I understand it. Thanks ever so much for your help, I really appreciate it

Watcha guys, I have just downloaded and imported the Standard Deviation Channel indicator from prorealcode.com but instead of displaying the channels within the price chart, it is located as a separate (empty) chart altogether below. Can anyone shed any light on this please? Any help much appreciated. cheers, Rob

IG Pro Real Time
TREBOR84 replied to TREBOR84's question in IG Technical Support - Platform and App Help
It is actually Windows 7, yes - it's old I know. Yes, I will give them a call. Thanks for your help guys -
Hi folks, Anyone had problems launching Pro Real Time? I have installed the program but cannot launch it. Tried every which way - disabling my anti-virus firewall and the Windows built in firewall but no luck. My laptop is 10 years old now... but still has 50 gig of storage remaining (out of around 150), and 2 gig RAM. Has anyone else encountered any problems with this? Cheers, Rob

Hi everyone, Back again with another question I'm afraid lol. I was hoping to trade UBER this morning, it is 'All Sessions' but it seems I can only trade it within US Market open hours. I was under the impression I could trade pre market if the stock was an 'All Session'? Any advice would be great, thanks, Rob

Pro Real Time platform

Hi Alex, Thanks for that, glad it's on there. I *believe* the first month is free anyway but I might look into that. Thanks again, Rob -
Closing only: Market unavailable to open
TREBOR84 replied to JamesWatson's question in IG Trading Support - Dealing Questions
Hi again Well I only really use the Spread Betting platform because of the leverage and also no commission, no taxes etc. I used to use the CFD platform until I discovered Spread Betting. The share dealing platform is 2 cents per share OR minimum $15, whichever is more so penny stocks commission could mount up. I thought Pro had Level 2 no? I was going to get it on the 1st July. I hope it has VWAP too? I mostly just watch videos by either 'Boiler Room' or 'Investor's Underground'. Boiler room is very good and he just tells you everything you need to know. Investors underground are also good but they only go so far and the rest they put on their 2 DVDs which cost about $1000! So I have not bought them. I follow them on Twitter etc and always trade their free Sunday scans. They have their own chatroom where they give out free scans each day; you can learn from their experienced traders... lots of other benefits. That costs around £200 per month. I am *thinking*about doing that... I am dubious about these courses though. 3 grand is a lot but if you have done your research then maybe -

I also wanted to trade UONE but couldn't. I guess it must be for the reason above by Casey that it is below the 250m threshold. That was over a year ago that was written though but I can't find any info as to whether or not it is still the case. And is that in $ or £? Also it seems we can only trade 'All Sessions' US stocks pre-market and AMC as opposed to others that are open pre-market and AMC etc. I guess you're trying out day trading right? I am starting to wonder if IG is the right option for day trading -
Market data, Hours
TREBOR84 replied to TREBOR84's question in IG Trading Support - Dealing Questions
Thanks a lot - I see it now. Still can't find the 'Hours' tab though... I see it on Apple but just some don't have it. Inovio (INO) for example doesn't. I can find it out elsewhere obviously but it's just nice to have info like this at my fingertips I find. Thanks again -
Hi everyone, I would sometimes like to trade non- 'All Session' stocks pre-market (the smaller cap US stocks that are not 'All Sessions' but are still open pre-market and after market close) but this does not seem possible online with IG, can anyone confirm this please? If not, can I trade over the phone? Thanks, kind regards, Rob
