I felt the educational materials were basic,more advanced resources would be helpful for experienced traders
Traders have noted that spreads and commissions on certain products can be wider compared with low cost brokers.
The platform feels a bit complicated for new traders
Totally agree 👍 The platform can feel a bit overwhelming for new traders at first, especially with so many tools and features. A simpler layout or better onboarding would really help beginners get comfortable faster.
Fees seem higher compared to other brokers.
very high
IG Markets’ platform can feel overwhelming for new traders.
Charting tools are good but not very flexible.
Their spreads widened heavily during news events, making scalping nearly impossible for me.
