ISA stocks and shares


bmont

Question

I’ve opened an ISA trading account and I have a few question before deposit funds.

 

1.Is there any margin call in this account or can a trade be closed or reduced if a trade declines? If not does the value just drop proportionality?  

 

2. Can profits be withdrawn on an open trade?

 

3. If the maximum of £20k is deposited and u make profit can more than £20k be traded on further trades and if so is the sum more than £20k taxable if profits are made?

 

4. When opening the ISA account I had to open a share dealing account, what was the reason for this and do I have to use it? 

Thanks in advance

Hey @bmont

1. With an ISA account there's not a margin call as you're buying the actual shares. What you should be aware of is any fees that may impact you balance. For example there can be a quarterly £24 fee. You must make sure there's enough funds on the account to pay this. So it doesn't effect your ISA allowance you can have the money on your share dealing account and we can take it from there. 

2. Profits cannot be withdrawn from an open trade. You have to sell you stock and wait for the funds to settle before you can withdraw them. 

3. If you make profit on stocks which means you exceed £20K this is not an issue. With regards to tax we're unable to comment you would have to reach out to an independent tax advisor.  

4. You do not have to use your share dealing account if you don't want to. The share dealing account is non-leveraged. Clients open with this account and if ISA eligible will be shown the option to add an ISA. 

All the best

    • Unlike many emerging platforms that are building a reputation, Safe is already a leading provider of smart wallet infrastructure for Ethereum and EVM blockchains and their focus is to transform every Ethereum account into a secure smart account. With over 200 projects already deployed on Safe's standard, including Gnosis Pay and Worldcoin, it boasts a vast ecosystem that enables new applications in DeFi, staking, gaming, and more. Widely used by individuals and organizations for features like gasless transactions, facial recognition logins, Safe is trusted by industry giants like Vitalik Buterin, Punk6529, Shopify, and Reddit for managing their digital assets. I believe with over 8.3 million Safe accounts, 47 million transactions processed, zero critical security incidents since launch in 2018 plus a slated Bitget listing of SAFE token, Safe is setting the industry benchmark for security. Who is/are Safe’s closest competitors?
    • Dow, Nasdaq 100 and Nikkei 225 make headway off recent lows The selling in indices has stopped for now, with major markets higher after finding at least a short-term low last week. Source: Getty Images Written by: Chris Beauchamp | Chief Market Analyst, London   Publication date: Tuesday 23 April 2024 13:38 Dow recovery goes on The index continues its recovery from the lows of last week, and Monday’s session saw it move back above the 100-day simple moving average. The flood of major earnings over the coming two weeks may mean that the index experiences a more volatile period, even if it does continue to rebound. Further gains target 39,000, which provided some resistance earlier in the month, and then on to 40,000. A close back below 38,000 could suggest the price will head back towards 37,500, retesting last week’s low. Source: ProRealTime Nasdaq 100 braces for big tech earnings The pullback in the index paused yesterday, as the price reached 17,000. A small gain helped to suggest that a low may be forming. The big tech earnings that dominate this week and next may mean that the index struggles in the short-term, though with the percentage of index members below their 20-day SMA hitting 5% last week a short-term bounce still seems likely. A close above 17,415 and the 100-day SMA helps to build a short-term bullish view. Sellers will want to see a close back below 17,000, which could then open the way to the January low at 16,177. Source: ProRealTime Nikkei 225 returns to 100-day SMA As with other indices, the Nikkei 225 has seen its pullback pause over the past three sessions. Buyers appeared last week when the index dropped below 37,000, and the index then pushed back to the 100-day SMA. A close above the 100-day SMA would add strength to the bullish view, while the price then targets the early April highs around 39,860. 37,000 continues to hold as support for now, so a break below here is needed to put the bearish view back on track.
