Price lower in different accounts?


Recommended Posts

Hi,

My partner and I each have a Stocks and Shares ISA, what I've noticed is the prices of ODX and RMS are lower in my account than his,

so, in my account they'll be ODX 53.45 but 54 in his, RMS 2.890 in mine but, 3.000 in his, has any one else had a similar experience or can offer an explanation?

Many thanks in advance.

Check your settings? Maybe one has Bid price and the other Ask. That's all I could think of.

Hi Terry,

Thanks for the reply, but its not that, its the live prices that are displayed at different prices..

We both have roughly 30000 shares in ODX, lets say we decide to sell at the current price of 70p, he'd make £21000 minus commission

My live price would be around 69.45 so would only make £20835 minus commission, I know its only a difference of £165, but why should it cost me that?

The odd thing is at the end of the days trading and all the auctions etc, only then do the prices match?

I've tried the online chat and they've referred me to the 'shares desk' I took some screenshots which for some reason they couldn't open so I've sent some more and I'm waiting for a response.

I was hoping this was a common problem and some one else may have had the same issue, but its not looking like it at the moment! 🙂

Do the accounts have different position size? The average price to close a large position will be higher if it needs more bids to get the volume.

Our accounts are about the same size, Its just odd the the LIVE prices are different.
If you added ODX to your watchlist it would be 60p for example
It would be 60p in my partners account
Yet in my account it would be 59.45p
I'd have thought ODX 's live price would be the same for EVERYONE on IG's pages?

    • What is Foreign Exchange? Foreign exchange (Forex or FX) is the conversion of one currency into another at a specific rate known as the foreign exchange rate. The conversion rates for almost all currencies are constantly floating as they are driven by the market forces of supply and demand. The most traded currencies in the world are the United States dollar, Euro, Japanese yen, British pound, and Australian dollar. The US dollar remains the key currency, accounting for more than 87% of total daily value traded.Factors that Affect Foreign Exchange Rates Many factors can potentially influence the market forces behind foreign exchange rates. The factors include various economic, political, and even psychological conditions. The economic factors include a government’s economic policies, trade balances, inflation, and economic growth outlook. Political conditions also exert a significant impact on the forex rate, as events such as political instability and political conflicts may negatively affect the strength of a currency. The psychology of forex market participants can also influence exchange rates. The Foreign Exchange Market The foreign exchange market is a decentralized and over-the-counter market where all currency exchange trades occur. It is the largest (in terms of trading volume) and the most liquid market in the world. On average, the daily volume of transactions on the forex market totals $5.1 trillion, according to the Bank of International Settlements’ Triennial Central Bank Survey (2016). The forex market major trading centers are located in major financial hubs around the world, including New York, London, Frankfurt, Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Sydney. Due to this reason, foreign exchange transactions are executed 24 hours, five days a week (except weekends). Despite the decentralized nature of forex markets, the exchange rates offered in the market are the same among its participants, as arbitrage opportunities can arise otherwise. The foreign exchange market is probably one of the most accessible financial markets. Market participants range from tourists and amateur traders to large financial institutions (including central banks) and multinational corporations. Also, the forex market does not only involve a simple conversion of one currency into another. Many large transactions in the market involve the application of a wide variety of financial instruments, including forwards, swaps, options, etc. Foreign currency exchange (forex) A foreign currency exchange rate is a price that represents how much it costs to buy the currency of one country using the currency of another country. Currency traders buy and sell currencies through forex transactions based on how they expect currency exchange rates will fluctuate. When the value of one currency rises relative to another, traders will earn profits if they purchased the appreciating currency, or suffer losses if they sold the appreciating currency.  
    • Totally agree, the growth of Bitget Wallet will have a positive impact on $BWB. The potential for both seems exciting. Good luck to you too, and hopefully everyone can benefit from these earning opportunities.
    • Sounds like Mystiko Network is making some serious waves in the interoperability space. Seamless compatibility across multiple blockchains is a game changer, especially with the ZK SDK for secure and private dApps. Big backing from Samsung and Coinlist adds credibility too. I will keep an eye on that Bitget listing, it could be a major boost for $XZK
