Hi, I was wondering why all the analysts that I watch on DailyFX(provided by IG) use a different time zone on their charts on the platform TradingView. I also use trading view sometimes but would like to be able have a daily close at the NY close on the Deal platform, ive tried looking for an answer but cant find. Thanks.

Hi @rachelbarnes, a platform's time zone is dependent on your broker's data feed. I think IG only has UK time and Australian eastern for the Australasian region.

Very few platforms incorporate the facility to change time zones, Trading View is one but I don't think IG has a hook up with them to deal through. The ProRealTime platform, which IG does provide (with conditions), also has the function to change time zones .

The most inept part of the IG plattform is the neglectful part of showing the time zone that is in play for the Signals info and the time shown on the graphs. It is beyond logic as to why such vital information is not shown. Its like showing a measurement without defining whether it is metres yards centimeters millimiters or some other unit. 

How can such a vital bit of info not shown in a plattform expected to operate in the 21st century. This is just unacceptable and one cant trade with this plttform as a result of this missing info.

Having the option to have all the info in the same time zone is what is absolutelly necessary here not to mention that the date along with the time needs to be shown.

Having played with it for a year now I cant bring myeslf to trade with this plattform because of this time and date issue. The irony is that it is such an easy thing to apply to this otherwise briliant platform, so come on IG get to the 21st century now.

    • 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.
