Module down

The technical analysis module is not loading

Can’t login with existing credentials

For some reason it won’t accept my login credentials and instantly rejects. States an account can’t be found yet other apps work. Maybe my password is too complex and it breaks?

Very thankful for this app

Having issues

Inaccurate internet notifications:Despite having a stable internet connection, the app displays a "no internet" message, preventing access to content.
Missing course tracks: Several course tracks are no longer visible within the app and website.
Took help from customer service. Online chatbot. Suggest me logout and relogin
Login difficulties: Uninstalling and reinstalling the app did not resolve the issue. Upon attempting to log back in, I was denied access.

I second the Best Around comment

I’ve studies the forex market off and on for the past 3-4 years. Yes I was sucked into the IML pyramid scheme but I learned a-lot and took in all the content for the couple months I continued to pay. I later realized everything I was paying for, I could get for FREE. Start with BabyPips and come to IG Academy, and your foundation will be strong as steel. Yes I agree there is always more to learn, but these are DEFINITELY a great start. They give the same content I thought I had to pay for. And it has really helped me to lay the pavement for future trading endeavors.

Great lead into Markets

Just started first lesson & i find the video clips within it, the examples given before the questions, and the reasons for the answer given after. I found all 3 of above very helpful. Lesson structure well thought out.

Teachers

This app is great but would be more helpful with real teachers and homework to do. Other than that this app is phenomenal.

Complete rubbish

I am in a banking software but have not seen so unprofessionally written identification software. If you have an option - do not touch!

Best Around

I will make this quick. Consume all content on babypips then all content on IG Academy and read Technical Analysis Explained and there is literally no more educational overhead you could need. You will need to keep learning more as you go but that is the foundation and the comprehensive material provided by IG is a massive pillar in that equation.

App has many flaws

The content is pretty useful, but the app loses connection all the time which prevents quiz’s being able to be taken and also doesn’t sync course progression with the desktop version.

Class

Class to be fair. Clear and concise.

Really good app

I’ve learned a lot from just one lesson. It’s Mobile friendly and has been made simple for beginners to understand. Highly recommended

Thumbs up

Great stuff

Good for beginners

Just knew a bit about simple share trading but this app has given some very good information about all the other instruments and is fairly easy to understand

Videos dont work

Barely dove into it but it seems like a great learning tool overall only thing is the videos do not work. If this is fixed i would likely change my rating to a 5.
