Hi elmundotrade,
If you believe there is a problem with the price action please post a timestamped screenshot of the deal ticket at the time or even better a chart reflecting this action.
We can try and confirm if there any issues.
Can anyone else confirm this price action with their broker for the FTSE100 Cash contract?
Who are you implying I represent exactly? IG?
As an IG client who has been stopped out of plenty of trades which proceeded to go my way, I keep a close eye on claims of price manipulation. Considering IG is a London company, I really don't see them playing the prices which the majority of their customers would be watching.
Since you seem motivated enough to make accusations but too lazy to back them up I did some digging.
I assume the circled candle in the below 30min is the one you are referring to.

Hi again elmundotrade,
For us to verify the "facts" you need to post a screenshot of the price action so we can confirm. Not sure how come you have time to make all these posts but not take a screenshot. You don't even tell us who is supplying your chart. Are you using the IT-Finance charts supplied by IG?
I see no such price action anywhere on any chart I can pull up. The only time I see the price in the 3900s in the last 2 weeks is on the 24th of Jan.
The deal ticket on the 5 minute chart for 01:55am ADEST candle states highest at 4304 and lowest at 4287.
One would think accusing the worlds largest CFD broker of price manipulation without any evidence is beyond the bounds of "objective observation".
if u were stopped out due to the glitch shown, then you would have recourse with IG. were u stopped out??
Thats it James!!, that was what I was talking about, the glitch shown is of about 300 points....and that would of happened in less than 1 minute, I would say in seconds. Any one that would of set a stop limit loss withing that range would of being wiped out, right?...... Now would you be able let say in that situation of being wiped out of market, argue that point with IG, and get a refund for what you've lost?
Anyway, I wanted to say to sinner..... that I have noticed that in the IG platform there is 2 types of charts you can look at, one being the one you screenshoted earlier today, which is the 'Quick chart', this one doesn't show the glitch.... and the one James just screenshotted, which is 'Advanced chart' , which is the one that shows the glitch, and is the one I use for my technical analysis...... My question now would be, which one is more accurate to the price of the real market?? We all know that here we are dealing with a MM platform, and there could be price lagging, right?
At the moment I'm trying to screenshot the charts to put it in the thread, anyone any suggestions of how to do it?..... as a matter of fact, I don't have to now since sinner, and James screenshotted both of the different charts already.....but any how I would like to learn anyway...
Cheers.... :aliena:
Have any of you called IG and spoken to them?
or do u just come on here and whine?
I have spoken to IG about this, the charts are provided by IT Finance a French based data provider. on every chart i have seen it has the message of data is indicative.
I also had a massive spike on a IG chart once this was IT Finances fault and not theirs. I called to find out I was told the market did not go there and had nothing to worry about, case closed.
Lets cut the crap.......
attached is a chart from a ECN broker....
LOOK AT ALL THE TAILS ON THE WORLDS MOST Heavily TRADED MARKET THE EUR/USD OMG ATC IS OUT TO GET ME CALL THE BROKER BUSTERS!
Tails happen people get used to it. I have been stopped by 1 pip on many times with a ECN broker and a Market Maker. I have also had my limit missed by a pip as well many a time, so is it price manipulation??? no it's called trading and it's hard...... so get used to it.....
I get a little sick of seeing people blaming dealing desks or any other broker for their crappy trading...........
all I can see is wah wah wah wah like I said if you a problem call them and talk about it!
think about it, who would know more IG or JA and Sinner??
no James it turned into a witch hunt........
with charts of any tail being posted as price manipulation....
that is my point.
mate trade GBPJPY then u will see tails that will blow your minds!
this feels like a storm in a tea cup.
it neednt be.
the tails arent the issue, the question is, did elmundo get stopped out on that tail?
i suspect he didnt, even if he was in the trade, because the tail didnt show up on the futures chart.
