Ok thanks a lot Casey. Are you the same Casey as the one on the BRT day trading chatroom?

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

Thanks a lot guys. I used the wrench up there in the corner and it seems to be displaying now

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

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

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

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

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

Hi everyone, I intend to upgrade to IG Pro soon mostly because I want VWAP. I assume it has this but can anybody confirm please? Also, is the screener any good? I mean is it any diiferent from the basic one on the IG website? Does it have a filter for 'Technicals'? Thanks, kind regards, Rob

Hi everyone, Is the minimum Market Cap for a US stock 250 million? I seem to remember reading this ages ago somewhere. If so, is that $ or £? And is there any way around this? I.e. making a phone order, upgrading to Pro etc? Cheers, kind regards, Rob

Hello everyone, Unlike the App version, the IG desktop version does not seem to have a 'Market Data' section, so nowhere to find out the Fundamentals, Events etc. Is this hidden somewhere would anyone happen to know? Also, I see that some companies have an 'Hours' box which displays the trading times for that stock but some don't. Can anyone shed any light on this please? Thanks, Rob

Hi, thanks for the info. Yes it is an old school layout isn't it. Really looking for news alerts to be sent to my device as opposed to me having to check for news updates every 5 minutes

Hi all, Could anyone advise me on a good news alert website/ app i.e. one that promptly sends breaking financial news straight to my device please? I don't mind paying for it but a free one would also be nice. I don't think IG do this right? I currently use MSN Money, and although they publish the news fast, they don't send alerts out. Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks, Rob

Hi there, Just a quick question - does the profit and loss (P&L) figure at the bottom of the screen include buy and sell fees please? Thanks, Robert

Ok thanks very much guys. Have a good weekend

Hi there, I am new to IG after using a free trading platform the last year or so. Just a few questions: - slippage. IG say that if the execution price moves beyond their 'tolerance level' then the trade won't go ahead. What is tge tolerance level, in petcentage terms I guess? - Order level. Is this as simple as it seems? Just set it to as close to the previous close price and once the price surpasses that level the stock is bought? Thanks, Robert
