To make matters worse, did anyone notice that IG just jacked up the margin rate, about 15 minutes ago? No warning, no email, no nothing. I’m with IG Switzerland and the major indices just went from .5% to 2%. Will affect all new trades so expect to see a lot more rejections!

I rang them and they hope it’s just until Monday if things calm down a bit. Still, there should have been some notice given.
