Why can’t I trade ETF’s in my S+S ISA?


Recommended Posts

Hello, I’m trying to trade a couple of boring ETF’s in my stocks and shares isa (Vanguard S and P as well as ishares S and P)

For some reason when I attempt to do so it says ‘this instrument is not available to trade on the tax wrapper associated to your account’

i was under the impression ETF’s could be traded on a stocks and shares ISA, is this not the case?

Hi @Scott12347,

Not all the ETFs are ISA eligibile as per HMRC policies. Please check this link which contains an updated list of instruments tradable on ISA.

Thanks,

Hello Jakub

I hope you both don't mind me jumping in with a similar question. 

I've just signed up to the IG platform yesterday so apologies if i'm asking a daft question but i had my eye on the Vanguard S & P 500 ETF as well. Is it possible to buy, as a normal share dealing purchase? I did try purchasing 1 share earlier in the day but when i clicked on 'confirm order 'it returned 

'X sorry

This is a complex instrument and is currently not eligible to be traded on your account. Please call your normal dealing number for more information.

What do i need to do to my account, to allow me to purchase this ETF?

    • Joshua, where next with this trade, have you closed your position following the continued slide since 13th March?
    • As the banking crisis seems to abate and the price of gold is coming off, AUD/USD is expected to resume its descent from its February highs. We would thus like to short AUD/USD at $0.6665 with a stop-loss at $0.6760 and a downside target at $0.6175.   Axel Rudolph FSTA | Senior Financial Analyst, London | Publication date: Monday 27 March 2023           
    • EUR/USD, EUR/GBP and GBP/USD volatility is on the wane Outlook on EUR/USD, EUR/GBP and GBP/USD likely to calm down following last week’s volatility.  Axel Rudolph FSTA | Senior Financial Analyst, London | Publication date: Monday 27 March 2023  EUR/USD hovers above support EUR/USD’s sharp decline from last week’s $1.0929 high amid worries surrounding Deutsche Bank’s double-digit fall in its share price, leading to flight-to-quality flows into the US dollar, pushed the cross to Friday’s low at $1.0714, to marginally below the 55-day simple moving average (SMA) at $1.0736, before closing above it late last week. On Monday morning the currency pair is trying to remain above the moving average and the March tentative trendline at $1.0742. While this is the case, the mid-February high at $1.0804 may be revisited. Minor resistance above $1.0804 can be spotted between Thursday’s low at $1.0825 and Friday’s intraday high at $1.0837. Where a drop through Friday’s low at $1.0714 to be seen, however, the early March high at $1.0695 would be eyed. Source: IT-Finance.com EUR/GBP’s slide from last week’s £0.8865 high shows no sign of stopping just yet EUR/GBP’s rally to Thursday’s £0.8865 high has been followed by the last few days descent to Friday’s low at £0.8777 as the euro weakened due to the banking crisis surrounding Germany’s largest bank Deutsch Bank. A fall through £0.8777 would likely engage the February low at £0.8755. Resistance can be found at Thursday’s £0.8814 low and also comes in along the 55-day SMA at £0.8834 and at the 15 March high at £0.8843. Source: IT-Finance.com GBP/USD hovers below last week’s high at $1.2343 GBP/USD’s advance stalled at Thursday’s $1.2343 high with it dropping to $1.2191 before stabilising. Provided that this low underpins, the 24 January low and mid-February high at $1.2263 to $1.227 may be revisited, a rise above which would lead to the $1.2343 high seen last week being back in the frame. Only and advance above Thursday’s high at $1.2343 would push the December and January highs at $1.2446 to $1.2448 to the fore. Below Friday’s low at $1.2191 meanders the 55-day SMA at $1.2154 which may act as support, were it to be revisited. Source: IT-Finance.com
