Hello,
I just received a notification that my PRT trial via IG has ended. I trade through a different supplier (IB) but analyze and backtest through PRT intraday data.
What is the cheapest option to get access to intraday data with the PRT platform?
Thank you,
Assaf

Probably IG and do at least 4 trades per month on the IG PRT Platform.
Question:
What advantage have you been getting by doing trades via IB instead of IG?

Well, I don’t really know what are the differences between IB and IG in terms of costs and fees.
Also I have a regular stock account and not CFD.

You can trade stocks with IG in a regular way using the IG Platform (not PRT) and also the value of your regular stocks can be used as an offset against margin requirements etc if you ever do fancy a dabble on a leveraged CFD.
Thanks GraHal but I prefer to continue with IB also because they have support in Hebrew.
Using the PRT platform for intraday data only and not for trading, which option is cheaper?
a Live account via IG or directly through PRT?
I think that the cheapest is by using CFD through a sponsored account / IG: https://trading.prorealtime.com/en/brokerage
But if you are trading with IB, you are not obviously comparing the same instrument while looking at CFD like you did.
