Which Platform to use. PRT Cost. Low Trading Value.

Question

Hi, I'm struggling here.  The retail Platform works so long as I only have one chart open and 1 time frame.  However, it's still a bit laggy/stuttering.

Before you all ask, I have a very powerful PC that was used to edit 4k Video. Core i7 6700 3.4ghz.  16gb DDR4.  Gti 750 gc.  SSD.  My internet is 40MB Fibre.  I'm using Chrome and no other pages open.  It's the same using Firefox and on 2 other laptops at home.  My main PC; this one is connected directly to the Router by Ethernet.

I've brought this up in the past to no resolve.  Compared to say Trading View Charts, the IG platform is like windows 98. 


I'd like to hear from anyone who has experience of using the retail Platform and ANY other platform where they have noticed a difference.

It will be of little use to me to simply tell me what you use if you have no reference between the two.  I'm looking for answer from people who have experienced what i am talking about.

I've spoken with IG again who have assured me there is nothing wrong with their platform and it must be my end.  I'm willing to accept there may be a compatibility issue with my setup, but until someone can point it out I'm going to assume it's just not a great platform; so looking for alternatives.  


I've asked IG about Pro Real Time and the cost.  It has been pointed out that it must be 4 trades per month and of a certain value, but they can't tell me what that value is.


THEY CAN'T TELL ME THE VALUE???????????????


Can anyone tell me the Trading Value to get PRT Free?


Thanks

    • 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.
