It's been a third day in a row that starting 2.30 pm platform is down for about an hour. I can not log in. Does anyone have this issue?

Yes, platform has been down for me too... Seems like it is only certain people though?
Is it because I've been trying to trade the Melvin short stocks and Silver?!

it is everyone, very terrible, no wonder most clients lose money. This is very terrible and this comes across as unprofessional. How can a big broker as this keep having these ancient problems> I feel like I am about to have a heart attack.

This is the 3rd straight day of not being able to log in. And not for the first time either, this happened on atleast 10 occasions I can think of in the last 12 months.

Surely there has to be legal requirements to maintain a functioning platform in order to be able to operate? Or atleast a body who we can report problems to that can hold IG to account?

Unable to view positions or trades!! 
 

Iknow there are maintenances issues given the current market... hopefully this is rectified quickly before people start looking at other options.

Since I can't trade I'm using the time to have a look at the alternatives to IG

I would also check their forums. If competing platforms fail at the same time like they did in America, then it is not only the brokers but market makers that are trying to keep retail out of certain markets. If this occurs because MMs are set to lose a lot of money (for a change), then it is blatantly illegal and if the authorities are not corrupt, their investigation should send certain people to prison. Not only in America. Manipulating markets by cutting off retail is not legal anywhere. For now I can still believe it is only a technical glitch, but if competing platforms also fail, it is not.

You are increasingly losing your customers while this sort of so-called "technical problems"  keeping happening at the most important trading hours! 

this is absolutely  not acceptable!  Looking for an alternative for IG! 

shame!

Can you please explain how you expect customers to have any trust in the platform? I have literally watched a position swing from a gain to a loss to a gain again since this outage and there is absolutely nothing I can do about it.

US markets open at 2.30 pm. So lots of users today to buy GME and AMC. It sent the server crashing.

    • Sainsburys full year earnings and Unilever’s first quarter trading update both say the same thing, UK consumers are in for higher prices. The war in Ukraine, supply chain issues and the effects of ongoing Covid all to blame.      
    • US Dollar (DXY) Daily Price and Analysis US Q1 GDP may stall the greenback’s advance. A 20-year high nears for the US dollar. The multi-month US dollar rally continues with the greenback printing a fresh high today ahead of the first look at US Q1 GDP at 12.30 GMT. The US dollar basket (DXY) has been boosted by renewed weakness in the Euro and the Japanese Yen, as investors move from lower-yielding to higher-yielding currencies, while safe-haven flows continue to benefit the greenback. The US growth release later in the session is expected to show a sharp slowdown from the robust Q4 figure of 6.9%. The markets are currently pricing in growth of just 1% for the first three months of this year, with the slowdown mainly due to a reduction in inventory accrual over the quarter. This release is unlikely to move the greenback, unless there is a large miss or beat, as the Fed believe that 2022 US growth will be robust enough to let them tighten monetary policy sharply without damaging the economy. The latest US Core PCE data – the Fed’s preferred inflation reading – is released on Friday and this may have more effect on the US dollar than today’s GDP data. For all market moving economic data and events, see the DailyFX Calendar. The ongoing US dollar rally has been aided by weakness across a range of G7 currencies including the Euro, the Japanese Yen, and the British Pound. The Euro continues to battle with lowly growth expectations, exacerbated by energy concerns, the British Pound is mired by weak economic data, while the Japanese Yen is in freefall as the BoJ continues with its ultra-loose monetary policy.   The US dollar continues to press higher and looks set to break above 103.96, the March 2020 high. Above here the US dollar would be back at levels last seen nearly two decades ago. The March resistance will likely hold in the short-term, especially with month-end portfolio rebalancing at the end of the week, but US dollar strength is set to continue in the months ahead. USDOLLAR (DXY) WEEKLY PRICE CHART – APRIL 28, 2022 {{THE_FUNDAMENTALS_OF_BREAKOUT_TRADING}} What is your view on the US Dollar – bullish or bearish?   Apr 28, 2022 | DailyFX Nick Cawley, Strategist
