on a programming request:
"Would it be possible to incorporate the following chart options?

"1. Heiken Ashen as an alternative to Candlesticks
2. Amend Stochastics to: 9/3/3
Replace 20/80 lines by 50 line
Delete Stochastic D%
Colour code above/below the 50 line within the K% line

"Heiken Ashen gives a clearer picture of trends. The amended stochastic signals when to sell of buy at a crossover of the stochastic 50 line. For instance using the above weekly charting IG system would have signaled a buy of the S&P500 on 19 July 2010 at 1103 and a sell on May 25th 2011 at 1325. In between no buys or sell. Thank you. "

Eoin Treacy's view Thank you for these suggestions and while we have no current plans to enhance our technical indicator suite of functions, I will add these requests to our list.
