    Volume is the amount of trades. If there's 100 buys and 100 sells you have a volume of 200 but no price change (simplistic I know). My point is that volume and price aren't really related, it's more of a marker of activity.

    Well done IG
  3. MikeBamber
    It's fixed itself now.

    ORDERSERVER INPUT PROTECTION HAS REJECTED THE TRADE, DUE TO EXTREME HIGH LOAD. What's going on?

    I spoke to the PRT team just now. They've told me that IG has very nearly done all the implementation - he said that it could be ready this year. Liking the idea of using a StreamDeck!

    Ha, it was a long scalp on the S&P, so wasn't going to make me rich anytime soon!!

    1 hour and 6 minutes!

    IG have just agreed to refund my loss. Good on them, that was the right thing to do.
  9. MikeBamber

    Both through the web platform and ProRealTime... I cannot close out an open position on US500... IG are you going to refund any money lost because of your techincal error?
  12. MikeBamber
    I have learned my lesson - don't use the web platform. I love the interface of it, but execution is dodgy at best and order levels are frequently ignored. Switch to ProRealTime. It's a zillion times better.

    Righto, having used this web platform every day for the past year it decides to go mad. Really important trading day... every 30 seconds or so, every bleedin' drawing I've made, adjustment to chart, timeframe etc all resets back to a default 5min and deletes all drawings WHAT IS GOING ON!!
  14. MikeBamber
    This is happening to me too. It's a joke!!
  15. MikeBamber
    It only does it with that pair - there seems to be so many gremlins in this platform. Currencies disappearing etc with no answers why
  16. MikeBamber
    SB!
  17. MikeBamber
    Now it doesn't work on NOK/JPY. Stop level simply disappears after getting green popup saying 'order amended'
  18. MikeBamber
    The whole thing has started working now
  19. MikeBamber
    Hi - yes I have and it disappears as soon as I click away, which is what happens on the main screen.

    *DEMO TRADE* In a short position CADJPY and I cannot set a stop loss. Can set a limit fine. Anyone have a reason for this? Cheers Mike
  21. MikeBamber
    That makes sense. It does this a lot!
  22. MikeBamber
    GBP/USD for a start....
  23. MikeBamber
    Also bitcoin and others... just disappeared!

    Hi, it's within trading hours (last time was 12:40 GMT today), I'm using the new web platform with a modern laptop and fibre internet connection.
  25. MikeBamber
    Hi, Frequently during trading hours I will see live prices disappear off most of the major FX pairs (the same ones every time) and I cannot deal as it says 'market closed'. Is this a volatility problem or a technical glitch? Thanks in advance...

Spread bets and CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 69% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading spread bets and CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how spread bets and CFDs work, and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money. Professional clients can lose more than they deposit. All trading involves risk.

The value of shares, ETFs and ETCs bought through a share dealing account, a stocks and shares ISA or a SIPP can fall as well as rise, which could mean getting back less than you originally put in. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
