I've managed to get this done, the steps are listed below:

1. Open the positions tab

2. Add the position tab to My Workspace

3. Next to the Market text is an icon with three lines, clicking on this opens the menu to set the columns that are displayed

4. Display the book price

5. Edit the book price to get the average price desired, remembering that prices need to be rounded to 1 cent/pence

Job done

You may need to close and reopen the position tab to have the profit/loss column calculate correctly.

ahh yes, sorry I was able to resolve this myself a few days after my post.

For me, it was a browser issue, my settings would not save. I was using google chrome.

I tried it win mac safari and it worked fine.

I then cleared my google chrome cache and it worked after.

Hope this help others if they experience the same problem.

Sorry, but that reply didn't work for me as I can't amend the average price--are you able to include a screen shot or additional info?  Thanks!

1. Log into and go to the "my positions" section

2. Click on the blue button "Add to workspace"

3. Click on the "Add/remove columns" button (on the left to Market and looks like 3 horizontal lines)

4. Select the column "Book Costs"

5. You should now see the Book Costs column in your positions, if you like on the value of the stock, you can edit it.

Note: I had problems where I was able to edit the value but it never saved, this is a browser problem. Use a different browser or clear your browser history/cache.

Note: These instructions are accurate at the time of this post. IG may change the user interface in the future which could change the way this is done.

    • Facebook owner Meta Platforms saw its shares down heavily in extended trade after revenue forecasts disappointed. Some analysts are also now questioning the staggering amounts of money Meta is investing in artificial intelligence. Written by: Jeremy Naylor | Analyst, London   Publication date: Thursday 25 April 2024 10:28 Earnings per share came in at $4.71, comfortably above estimates of $4.32 and revenues up 27% year-on-year, at $36.46bln, above the forecasts of $36.16bln. That was the fastest rate of revenue expansion for any quarter since 2021. However, shares have quite clearly been priced for perfection as the outlook, however strong it is, quite clearly disappointed the market. Q2 revenue is expected at $36.5 to $39bln with the midpoint at $37.75bln, which would represent 18% year-over-year growth, but below analysts' average estimates of $38.3bln. However, the company is also expected to invest between $30-37bln into AI, possibly as much as $40bln, which some said was too much given current engagement. (AI Video Summary) Meta Meta Platforms, the parent company of Facebook, experienced a significant stock drop post-market following its quarterly earnings report, despite beating earnings expectations with a share price of $4.71 against a forecast of $4.32, and posting revenues of $36.46 billion. Meta's aggressive investment in AI technology This drop was attributed to concerns over its aggressive investment in AI technology, with spending on AI expected to be between $30 to $40 billion. Despite initial investor trepidation, there's notable buying interest in the stock at the lower prices, with 87% of clients holding long positions. The heavy investment in AI technology continues to spark debate among investors regarding the company’s future direction.     This information has been prepared by IG, a trading name of IG Markets Limited.

    • Despite ECB rate cut forecasts, the Euro climbs against the USD and GBP. US economic data could influence this uptrend.   Source: Getty   Forex Shares Euro Pound sterling EUR/GBP EUR/USD Written by: Nick Cawley | Analyst, DailyFX, London   Publication date: Thursday 25 April 2024 06:37 The euro has gained against the US dollar and the British pound recently, even as markets anticipate a European Central Bank rate cut in June. However, any weakness in the US dollar could be temporary, as upcoming US Q1 GDP and core PCE data may support the view of sustained higher US interest rates. The daily EUR/USD chart shows the pair trading on either side of 1.0700 after rebounding from 1.0600 last week. The April 16th multi-month low coincided with a heavily oversold CCI reading which is now being erased. All three simple moving averages are above the spot price and in a negative pattern, while the pair has posted two major lower highs and lower lows since the end of last year. The next level of resistance is seen at 1.0787, while a confirmed break of 1.0600 will bring 1.0561 and 1.0448 into play. EUR/USD daily price chart   Source: TradingView EUR/USD sentiment analysis: traders build net-shorts, prices may still fall Retail trader data shows 59.30% of traders are net-long with the ratio of traders long to short at 1.46 to 1.The number of traders net-long is 3.54% lower than yesterday and 16.77% lower than last week, while the number of traders net-short is 20.90% higher than yesterday and 35.35% higher than last week. We typically take a contrarian view to crowd sentiment, and the fact traders are net-long suggests EUR/USD prices may continue to fall. Yet traders are less net-long than yesterday and compared with last week. Recent changes in sentiment warn that the current EUR/USD price trend may soon reverse higher despite the fact traders remain net-long. EUR/GBP jumped last week after Bank of England (BoE) commentary that UK inflation is falling towards target. The BoE rate cut expectations were brought forward, weakening sterling against a range of currencies. EUR/GBP hit a multi-month high but partially retraced the move yesterday after the CCI indicator flashed a heavily overbought reading. In the short term, the recent double high around 0.8645 should act as resistance if the 200-day simple moving average is broken. The 0.8550 is currently guarded by both the 20- and 50-day SMAS. EUR/GBP: traders cut net-shorts on the week, prices may fall According to the latest retail trader data, 51.62% of traders are net-long on EUR/GBP, with a long-to-short ratio of 1.07 to 1. The number of net-long traders has increased by 22.75% compared to yesterday but decreased by 26.67% from last week. Conversely, the number of net-short traders has decreased by 15.19% since yesterday but increased by 61.45% from last week. The contrarian view to crowd sentiment suggests that EUR/GBP prices may continue to fall, despite the current mixed trading bias.
