What are trading signals?
Trading signals are actionable ‘buy’ and ‘sell’ suggestions for traders, based on emerging chart patterns and key levels being met. You can see signals for a huge range of markets in our platform, and use them to help you decide how to trade.
Disclaimer:
Our signal service does not constitute and shouldn’t be regarded as investment advice. We provide an execution-only service. You act on signals entirely at your own risk.

FAQs
What can I get trading signals for?
You can get forex signals, index signals and commodity signals with us.
How reliable are trading signals?
Trading signals are a great way to have chart patterns, which can constitute ‘buy’ and ‘sell’ opportunities, recognised and analysed automatically – taking some legwork out of your analysis. They’re a useful part of your broader analysis toolkit. However, you act on them entirely at your own risk – they’re never a sure thing.
Who provides trading signals for IG Bank?
Our signals come directly from third-party providers – Autochartist and PIA-First.
What devices can I get trading signals on?
You can get signals on your mobile devices with the IG Trading app, and on desktop with the IG Trading platform.
What’s the difference between a trading alert and a trading signal?
You’d set a trading alert to notify you of the economic releases, price changes or a chart meeting your technical conditions (which might be a signal in itself). Our trading signals inform you of significant trends or patterns in the markets that could lead to a trading opportunity.
