Market Charts

Although the global financial markets are still highly volatile, our professional-level charting package is designed to make sure you have the best tools and resources for accurate trading.

Our suite of market-leading, real-time charts has been developed in partnership with industry leader IT-Finance, providing a solution for every trading situation.

Even the most basic, simple-to-use charts in the package update in real time, which is ideal for basic analysis or market-watching, while our advanced charts cater for even the most sophisticated trader. All the charts are accessible via our award-winning PureDeal platform.

Chart your success

The complete charting package means there is always a solution to meet your needs. Key features include:

• Choose from more than 70 preset technical indicators, or create your own
• Examine potential trading strategies using the innovative Backtest feature
• Set Alerts to notify you on a huge range of variables
• Fully customise and tailor your charts to suit your needs

Our innovative DealThru technology means you are also able to place and update trades and orders within the chart itself – no more toggling between screens. Simply drag and drop your Stops and Limits on open positions, and view your current aggregated exposure on any market. You can even set indicator-based Triggers which automatically construct an order to trade if breached.

Need help using charts?

Our charts are designed to be user-friendly, although there is a vast wealth of information available for all levels of trader. We are therefore offering a free guide to the package via an online seminar, presented by our Chief Market Strategist David Jones.

David Jones qualified as a technical analyst back in 1995 and has created an extensive seminar programme for IG Index account holders – including detailed guidance on using our charts and following advanced trading strategies – all designed to make you a more effective trader.
