[Any update on IG integration with TradingView?]

This thread has been going since 2022 and we are still at status "don't know" - pretty pi$$ poor really

[Any update on IG integration with TradingView?]

Bit of a shocker that they are still not at the top of this list, and still zero indication of when they will be 

[is there a function to show executions on the chart?]

most charting platforms have an option to show executions on the chart - I cant find it on the IG charts - does the option exist?

Tradingview for example has small blue and red arrows that show where the trade was entered and exited - useful to review once the trade is closed

please advise

thanks

[Any update on IG integration with TradingView?]

Hi

Its been mentioned a few times by IG over the months that there is something being worked on in the pipeline for integrations with the TradingView platform

It would be a huge benefit to simply link IG account and place order on the TV charts

Has there been any progress, or any ETA of when this functionality may be available?

Come on IG - its ridiculous your name is not at the top of this list ...

[Is there a TradingView chart that matches IG's "Oil-US Crude" chart?]

Hi @AndaIG that was very helpful thanks!  So I was half way there using the Nymex Light Crude Oil Futures.  I'll take a look at the IG futures to see a closer correlation.

Thanks for the tip.

[Is there a TradingView chart that matches IG's "Oil-US Crude" chart?]

ahhh and you have to buy the data feed on TV for the Nymex otherwise the data is delayed by 10m  😬

[Is there a TradingView chart that matches IG's "Oil-US Crude" chart?]

its not ideal as IG has different trading hours to Nymex, so there is missing data - but its as close as we can get, and at least the swings allign...

Hi @MongiIG

Thanks for your reply.

In this instance the issue is that the IG Oil price is some sort of derision of futures - not sure how it is calculated exactly but it is very different from all other providers - I mean the numbers themselves don't matter to be honest but IG chart will for example put in a swing higher high when others are putting a lower high and I cant find any other provider that is vaguely similar to IG pricing (which is odd in itself as they all seem to be roughly similar to each other with IG being the stand out exception).

All other markets I have looked at (FX, Commodities, Indices) I can pretty quickly find a chart to match IG, so it is very easy to do my charting on TradingView system which is hands down the best and almost become industry standard.

Point in case, take a look at these 4 other providers -   all pretty consistent with each other.  Look at the two swing high points - high followed by a higher high. 

IGs however, as you can see is quite different - high followed by a lower high (see attachment).

So its not as if we are talking a little off, which is really odd, and hence my post asking if anyone knows of any other Oil price provider is even close to what IG presents as I cant be the only one hoping to solve this one.  Its a bit of a head scratcher to say the least as to why IG doesn't agree with any of the others, as the pricing has to come from somewhere

Its no great drama, I can always work a "fudge" but if you or any of your colleagues do have a brain wave or explanation, Im all ears!

Cheers

Charlie

PS Before hitting send on this post I did some more searching on TV, and  have now been able to answer my own question - it looks like the IG chart is almost the same as Nymex Light Crude Oil Futures.  I'll still post this reply as it may be helpful for someone with the same quest in future!

 

[Is there a TradingView chart that matches IG's "Oil-US Crude" chart?]

Has anyone found an "Oil - US Crude"  chart on TradingView that vaguely matches the IG chart?

I like to do my charting on TradingView so can be tricky when there isnt a decent like for like

Would be so much better if IG was partnered with TradingView...

[Alert on phone App]

Thanks Arvin

I thought it may be something to do with my phone settings.

I'm on Android but still your steer has helped - I was looking in app settings and didnt consider sound settings

thank you!

i probably had it set to silent as i have so many notifications across all apps so now i have to decide - hear one hear all...could get noisey!

[Alert on phone App]

Hi 

Is the alert on the phone app meant to have a sound?  

I can get the alert set and it triggers, but it doesn't actually alert with a sound like the desktop platform does.  

Is there a setting somewhere to enable sound?

[EURGBP last night 22.00-22.30 - unusual or normal price action?]

I hear you

I guess my only comment would be the lack of consistency across the three pairs that by their nature should mean they are not altogether different in character (EU, GU and EG) - one would have thought (and of course I accept I could be wrong) that if GU and EU are behaving normally with perhaps a minimally wider spread then there is little reason for EG to be both very spiky and excessively wide spread

the cynic in me will always ask the question.  Its not unlike having that very special ability to place a stop on what turns out to be the very bottom tick and yet it never seems to happen with quite the same degree of accuracy or regularity with one's limits 

I jest of course but I bet I am not alone in pondering that one...

 

 

[EURGBP last night 22.00-22.30 - unusual or normal price action?]

thanks for your comments Casey, very interesting.

What is your take on the spread going from 0.9 pips to 12 pips - in a very docile market - acceptable or overkill?

(I accept that in times of extreme volatility the spreads can widen considerably, which is fair enough,  but I don't think we can put it down to that this time)

[EURGBP last night 22.00-22.30 - unusual or normal price action?]

i do understand false spikes can appear on charts - what i am saying is that i was watching it at the time and those spikes reflect the erratic bid and offer prices as they changed, so in this case i do not believe they were false spikes

I appreciate while changing providers that spreads may widen but a 12x factor is more than a little excessive and didnt happen in other pairs so it doesnt quite justify the action.

It would be interesting to get an official IG EURGBP market maker response as to the mecahnics of what was going on here.  Id rather they didnt just delete the wicks and assume it didnt happen.

You are of course right, i do recall see this sort of thing around the same time - might be a factor as to why i havent traded EG in a while

[EURGBP last night 22.00-22.30 - unusual or normal price action?]

the price action was real alright - i was watching it in real time - very odd

IG have advised me in the past that spreads widen at times of volatility - but 0.9 to 12 pips and then erratic swings - smells of stop hunting to me with no chance of getting filled on the limit orders

playing with a stacked deck?

 

 

[EURGBP last night 22.00-22.30 - unusual or normal price action?]

I havent traded EURGBP for a while so it may well be normal activity - maybe some sort of algo running between 22.00-22.30.

For no apparent reason the spread moves to 12 pips wide (from 0.9) and swings erratically.

Take a look at the IG 1 minute chart here with a corresponding chart from TradingView (FXCM feed but they were all the same) at the same time.  The chart I share is 1m and mid price so with that in mind this action would have swept all stops above and below the high 8698 and 8686 by a further 6 pips so call it a 25 pip range of 8680 and 8705 it what was for all intents and purposes a quiet market (EURUSD had a 6 pip range at this time and GBPUSD had a 8 pip range)

Luckily I saw it and pulled my stop and left in my Limit - need less to say my stop would have probably been hit at 80, and of course my Limit at 8700 whilst swept, was not triggered as the spread was 12 pips not the usual 0.9 pips.

Very odd action - I can only assume algo driven - but definitely not in the interest of the trader...

[Alert won't stop after deleting it]

Did this get resolved? I have got the same issue...

Thanks Caseynotes, that was very helpful.

The link you sent also contained another link that shows how to add the swaps to your watchlist - I specifically wanted this as only way to tell which pairs have a positive swap and which negative.

Thank you!

Hi

Can anyone point me to where i can see what the positive/negative swap is on each pair? Maybe a pdf data sheet somewhere?

TIA

[Natural Gas prices different on TradingView]

Thanks James, that does explain why i can find no corresponding charts.

Appreciated

[Natural Gas prices different on TradingView]

Can anyone tell me what the underlying market for IG Natural Gas Spot price is? and if there is a corresponding chart on TradingView?

The Natural Gas charts on TV look a little different to the one on IG

On Tradingview I can only find  Henry Hub Natural Gas Nymex Futures at 2280 which correlates with  CFDs on OANDA, but I cant find anything with the IG level at the  2400

Any pointers appreciated.
