@phoentzs I will contact PRT about this. Hopefully historical data are fixed today.
09/19/2025 at 7:39 AM #251132Nothing happens before the weekend, if they manage to fix it properly, otherwise we’ll have to wait until next weekend. I think it’s difficult to fix, otherwise everything would already be working. Keep in mind that discretionary trading is fully functional and the vast majority uses it, so those who use algorithms at IG probably don’t matter.

09/21/2025 at 7:44 AM #25120209/21/2025 at 9:27 AM #251206I only became aware of the problems last week. I’m with IG (UK) and run around 50 systems across four accounts. At the moment I can’t load PRT or stop systems, it shows the “We are actively working on an issue affecting the instrument universe” message.
I’m looking into alternative platforms and brokers because my confidence is slipping. I’d prefer to stay with PRT, but only if the issue is resolved quickly, and an explanation provided. I’ll then reduce my account size and trade more cautiously.

What happens if you close the above warning message / screen?
Can you still not login after doing above?

09/21/2025 at 9:53 AM #251211Thank, I can now log in. For the last two days when I clicked x on the message, the launch window also closed. At a glance systems are running as normal. I’ll try some back tests later today and see if I can replicate any of the issues that have been reported.

09/21/2025 at 1:06 PM #251216I was able to reconnect. But the algos didn’t come back. Do you know who I should contact that is important for me, thank you.
09/21/2025 at 1:54 PM #251218No algorithm can be used except those on the Dax; everything else is unusable until everything is fixed, because even if you see them, they’re completely wrong. In my opinion, it will take a long time; maybe they’ll give us a Christmas present.
09/21/2025 at 4:50 PM #251219I’ve spent a couple of hours on PRT today and everything appears normal on my side. My systems have continued to run as expected this month, as far as I can tell. For reference, I’m on a UK spread betting account (not CFDs) with IG, and all instruments are DFBs.
I re-ran back tests on DAX, US 500 (S&P 500), US Tech 100 (Nasdaq 100), some FX pairs, and Tesla. All results matched the detailed back test data I had stored from previous weeks or months.
As a precaution, I’ve paused most of my systems. I’ll be speaking with my IG account manager tomorrow and will continue to monitor.
