IG Markets Data in a stand-alone charting program - possible?

Thanks rnr, I've had a look at that but IG markets say they use IT-Finance charting for their advanced charting package.

IT-Finance do provide the advanced charting package to IG Markets and IT use ProRealTime although they don't advertise the fact on their website.

Have a look at their comparison of trading platforms and under Advanced features you see this reference "Automatic trend analysis: ProRealTrend draws support & resistance"
You can request a copy of the User Manual and Programming Guide from IT-Finance so that you can do some advance reading prior to setting up your account with IG.
 
Thank you all for your input - I am giving the advanced charting features a look and besides the split-window structure (every element has a different window, not one program that can be minimised/restored) which is pissing me off a bit, the charts are otherwise suitable for my purposes.

Thanks again, there's some stuff here I'm sure I'll have a look at when I want to make a move.
 

Lol, you mean like this???

CanOz, your comment on trading intraday with CFDs started a snowball of research and I'm going to give the CFD's a miss and keep saving to open an IB account for actual market access.

Doesn't make any sense to trade against your platform provider - if I were an F1 driver I wouldn't get a competitor's pit crew to work on my car, why should I show my hand to the other party?

Would rather bypass all the synthetic stuff and go straight for exchange traded contract with real order flow and actual transactions.
