Closing orders only

[Tja]

hi all,

I am trying to trade some bitcoin at the moment, but getting the message `closing orders only`. I could find some info why this might be happening, but not sure how to check this status before placing the order?

Hey, 

You can check any trading information such as closings only, unlongable, unborrowable on the get info section in the deal ticket under other: 

All the best

IG allows only professional traders to trade crypto currencies. If you have open positions on cryptos you  are allowed to close them but you cannot open new ones unless you are a pro.
