[IG price differential with XJO cash index]

The prices listed on the exchange are the best bid/offer of those trading on the exchange. Many times I've had the exchange panel up next to the brokers panel for days at a time, as as I've said in other threads the prices orbit each other, they don't mirror or lead or lag, often they separate by 5 points for a few seconds before coming back together, less frequently by 10 points and yes occasionally by 20 but seldom and it only lasts for a second or two. In a 2 way market this temporarily advantages one side or the other but not the broker.

Brokers provide prices to their clients, if you want to compare prices you should look at prices you can actually get and that's from another broker not the exchange. If you find another broker that you think is better then the solution is obvious.

 

But it feels like if I didnt have a sell order there it wont even chase that sell order, isnt that somewhat cheating

This just happen to me today

using trading side by side my order got hit at 3040 at IG and then rebounded

However on tradingview the price never went down below 3060. Thats 20 points difference. It literraly hunted my order then bounces back, now it is following close to the order price at trading view.

Is this reportable?
1 to 2 points sure, but 20 points??? just to hunt my sell order?
How?

HI
I am having the same issues and I have lost a lot of money.
Hope we can get an answer from them directly.
Feels like we are getting slight ly scammed

I look at other charts at the same time.
Since I place a buy order that area is not getting hit but when I look at other charts that order shouldve been hit?
Has IG been scamming me?
I've lost a lot of money on this platform and it feels like a scam now.
I only started watching other charts recently to make sure that there is consistencies vs other platforms 
But it seems like there is 10 points different between other live platforms vs IG

Please provide valid response

This is asx 200

Hi Everyone

I am planning/ specalise in scalping esp S&P500. I do have a couple of questions, and any contributions are appreciated. I plan to make money on small movement 1 to 5 points at a time 
1. Do you recommend IG for scalping or do you recommend other platforms?
2. Any other instruments I should consider learning
3. How can I access level 2 Data in pro real time, when I look at US500 the order book is empty?
4. Do you recommend any sources/guide/courses for scalping?

I have plenty of time and would like to learn deeply

Thank you in advance and have a nice weekend

Regards
