there are 3 separate charts for Wall street cash CFDs (click on the arrow next to the name) Cash £1 and Cash $2 and Cash $10 (live or demo). Each have a different margin requirement but as in my previous post, the Spread Bet £0.5/point has the lowest.
I know I'm going on about this, but both LIVE & DEMO is on 1 Pound each.

If you email the helpdesk IG tech can change the password and send a new one out to you.
I wasn't expecting IG to get back to me soon. 10min later and I'm logged in. Thank you all.

the password email should follow shortly after the first, may be the next day?
Thank you for the help thus far. I opened the MT4 account 3 months ago, never used it.
How will I be able to retrieve it if I do not have the 2nd email?

for a live account the account name (5 numbers) and password are sent in 2 separate emails. for a demo account they are generated during the 'add an account' process.
I only find the email with the account name (5 digits)
How can reset or retrieve my password?

LIVE & Demo (in above example) is on 1 pound Cash.
Even after the first month with the increased margin, the DEMO account is still 4x the LIVE's required margin.

hello ,
have the same problem don;t know what the login detail are for MT4!
Also IG is not replying to my emails for this..
I have installed the MT4, open the account at ig platform, but login in MT4 doesnt work
I've been trying for the last 2 hours to get my MT4 IG account password. Either I'm going crazy or this is not a user friendly approach at all.

Will I be required to fund my IG Meta Trader Account seperatly?
Can I trade on the MT account via a browser or only on the trading platform?

Why is the minimum contracts on let's call it the Wall Street capped at 0.50 or on the Germany 30 Cash at 1?
This has significant effects on the minimum margin required. I know of traders that trades with less that 600 pounds (due to currency conversion from South Africa for instance).

Why does the demo account behave differently to the live account in the above case?
This has been bothering me as well.
LIVE - Wall Street (1Pound) - Spread 3.6 - Contracts 0.5 - Margin - 656 pounds
DEMO - Wall Street (1Pound) - Spread 3.6 - Contracts 2 - Margin - 2622 pounds
Is this to force demo traders to see increased profits when the indices moves in their favor - eager to open a LIVE account?
If it moves against them you can easily just "deposit" fake money again.

Is it possible to have to different indices on one chart, not next to each other, but on top of each other.

Are you referring to Oil under "Options" or under "Commodities" it self?
Mine looks as follows

And this is before the whole melt down with Covid 19

Okay I have found the solution.
1) You need to download MT$ from the IG website and NOT on the MT4 website. It needs to show the below once installed
2) It will give you the option to add your details if you have already created a Meta Trader account under My IG.
3) The server will be the IG-LIVE server.
4) Limited Indices will be available.

Kindly assist with explaining "I can Place MT4"

I feel I'm a noob with Mt4. I downloaded MT4 from their website, MT5 opens.
I'm unable to log on to the IG-Live via the Web trader and/or the MT5 program.

They have not even bother to reply to my 3 e-mails.
Was also on phone last Friday for 40 minutes . No answer, fed up and cut it off.
The query was overnight charges in £1 long bet in US Crude, charged me £10.74. Doesn't seem right.
THANKS IG
I feel fed up as well

Is MT4 only for currency pairs?
If I'm on Market Watch and click on "Show All" there is no Indices or Metals.

Calculate required margin MT4
in IG Technical Support - Platform and App Help
Posted
I've tried to calculate margins since I have moved over the MT4.
On the IG website (international) the margin on the Dax is currently 620 pounds.
On MT4 with the size being 0.01, the margin is 138 pounds.
I don't know how that I calculated.
