Cannot place an order in IG ! NO quotes available

[Guest Maria]

I am trying to buy a share and it saying, NO quotes available, buy in exchange but I am not able to see exchange as an option at top

You do not say which shares. I had a similar problem as IG quote options in the Share account that you cannot trade. When you try and set up an options account they direct you to CFDs which is not what you want. In the old days I would have bought through a second broker but now they all want fees for doing nothing so a second broker isn't feasible. Then there are US shares you cannot trade with completing a form which I find impossible to do being abroad. I would have thought doing this online with a digital system would be adequate as your ID is established already. That's more a problem with the US treasury though. The simple answer is buy something else with IG or elsewhere.
