dont spread bet, but used to, but all you guys have my sympathy

i certainly dont miss the margin phone calls to top up.....

[acv74] 23/2/2021 19:21

And they expect you to pay the spread for the privilege of being forced to sell?

[acv74] 23/2/2021 19:20

...and this is our problem because..???? Their business is to take bets. They were happy enough recently when I was stopped out on JD Sports and Avon Rubber. IG are just a con, as someone said, the PIs are only supposed to lose.

[freddie ferret] 23/2/2021 18:58

I think the current policy of IG suggests their business model is broken. A betting shop that will not take bets......

but she could smile nimrod.....looked like someone shot her dog

Come-on guys, the lady is first class in the job that she's paid to do. Not everybody is comfortable in the visual media focus.

meanreventer.

Good point.

4670 - didn't you notice ? The lady FD had an itchy bum.

Ok but the nuances behind it are not really our problem. In all walks of life and business people want certainty when doing business, not their supplier changing the price or T&C's when you've already placed an order for 1000 smoked haddock.It's not good enough, they will hide behind the small print but it's no way to do business.

IG doesn't play any role as a counterparty: it just acts as a broker between clients who take opposite positions, collecting a commission for doing so.

IMHO, the reason that IG is pulling out of offering derivatives in the most speculative shares is because some clients are getting hammered by extreme movements. While this is no fault of IG, it doesn't want to be seen as “profiting from the customers' ruin”, following the bad publicity suffered by Robinhood in the US.

does that woman ever smile ??? like a bloody funeral director

if i were her with rhodium at 24k i would be beaming

[stemis] 23/2/2021 16:37

All they need to do is produce it, sell it and give us the money. The rest will take care of itself...

[martinfrench] 23/2/2021 16:26

tut tut that first slide on financials said fy2021....come on does no one check their slides ???

i always get the impression that the ceo is more of a production manager than ceo, seems quite an easy job

[acv74] 23/2/2021 16:13

IG can't be trusted to do business with....move goalposts at will and it always costs their customers money.I own real shares through my ISA and SIPP but also had a position with IG that was doing very nicely.A little too nicely for IG's liking it seems.

C Miller FD AAL

The Hydrogen Council now has 109 members, up from 59 in 2019, showing that hydrogen is becoming a real commercial opportunity. It’s not just targets and talking,” said Miller, adding that installations of proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysers had soared. PEM electrolysers make use of platinum and iridium and hydrogen fuel cells are catalysed by platinum.


N Viljoen CEO AAL

Drew attention to what she described as the increasing recognition of hydrogen’s role in decarbonising sectors that were otherwise difficult to abate, like heating and mobility.

“Hydrogen potentially offers one of the largest upsides for platinum demand in the coming decades. What is different now to the past is that there is a major directional shift towards hydrogen applications and we’re seeing positive signs towards the critical success factors to make this market a reality.

Eg - would today qualify? LOL
Thanks again
