I have recently set up an account last month and have bought/sold several shares. I am currently holding a share I bought last week that I would like to sell, but whenever I try to sell it I receive the following error:

"You are trying to sell more than you currently own. Please check working orders and try again."

This happens whether I try and sell all of them, or just 1 of them, and I can see my current position is 5 (so I should be able to sell at least 1). I am still able to sell other shares, just not this specific one.

Does anyone have an idea as to why this messages keeps coming up?

Spread bets and CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 76% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading spread bets and CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how spread bets and CFDs work, and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money. Professional clients can lose more than they deposit. All trading involves risk.
