Merger of shares and Call to close


ijammy

Question

I had positions in a share, and it merged with another company, and this should have completed last Friday.

However due to IG broker issues they have no done this and I have been stuck with the old share with even now no near date or when they will do it.

Consequently I have been loosing the position in the trade, which is not my fault but down to IG and the broker they use (others on competing trade platforms had there shares transferred by Friday).

Given this, shouldnt IG at very least reimburse me the loss incurred due to the failure to transfer the shares ?

Hi @ijammy,

That would be a query for the Corporate Action team. Could you please reach out to helpdesk.uk@ig.com. The helpdesk will be able to investigate and come back to you with an outcome.

All the best - Arvin

    • It is a best practice to buy dip and sell high but this strategy mostly doesn’t go as planned because you can’t predict the final bottom. Some traders BTD anticipating a potential pullback which mostly doesn’t happen and this force some into panic selling. DYOR is mostly advisable but some people fail to know which analysis they should focus more on. When deciding to hold a token for a long-term FA is very important and its cardinal point should be thoroughly scrutinized before making such a decision. These points include; Whitepaper, Road map, and Usecase. These points have a huge impact on deciding how long to hold a project and also booast your confidence in the project's bullish potential.  The first principle in this industry is “invest what you can afford to lose" though many neglect this principle as such when a project is going through a price correction they panic sell and sell at a huge lost. Most normal regret their decision later when they see the project back on track. Once you adhere to the first principle you hardly fall victim to panic sales. Note that it is mostly not advisable to hold meme tokens una less you are convinced because meme goes with the hype and finds it hard to retest its ATH once the hype is over.  Anyway what are your trading strategy and principles you adhere to most?
