Cant move stops


Potterwasp

Question

Please tell me im not doing something daft!

I cannot move stops. I have searched the forums and have seen a few others who are or have experienced the same. Moderators have suggested the change is too close in steps or that there is good/bad news imminent or that price changes are to volatile at the time of trying to change the stops.

Im not convinced.

In my demo account i have 11 positions open, a few shorts but mostly longs. Stops are "Normal". Markets are FTSE350 and one Nasdaq.

I have tried moving the stops tighter and broader. I have tried incremental changes in the Positions page. I have tried opening the stock page and dragging the Stop slider. I have tried tapping in a new stop in the Positions page. I have tried all my open positions both tighter and broader. I have tried adjustments while markets are open and on the closed market Nasdaq position.

I can see on some open trades where i move the Stop slider a gray band below the current price. I guess this represents the spread and/or 2% limit and when changing stops previously, this is the limit i could change the Stop to.

When trying on a stock open page I too get the popup confirming amendment but it never actually changes. It doesn't matter if I click the screen, click away or just close the tab. When I check next the stop has not budged an inch.

I have changed stops many times before but today none of my open trades can be stop amended.

Hi @Potterwasp

Thanks for the query, 

When replicating your issue I found that a refresh of the browser seems to solve the problem. Have you tried doing the same? FYI the backend system shows all your stop amendments, so they would have executed if triggered. If a refresh does not solve the issue for you please try contact our IT team at  0800 409 6789 / +44 (0)20 7896 0079 or helpdesk.uk@ig.com.

 All the best

I noticed the same problem yesterday, kept changing a stop and it kept reverting. I went to the App to see if it did the same and saw that my change had registered! I went back to my browser logged back in and the change was indeed there. So yes, it looks like a simple refresh issue.

    • Ondo finance is a project that is aimed to democratise access to institutional grade financial products and services using blockchain technology.  The project’s team seeks to leverage on the blockchain technology, to improve both the financial infrastructure and accessibility of financial products. The team cuts across former members of reputable firms like Goldman Sachs and partnerships with VCs like; Blackrock and Morgan Stanley. Practically, it seeks to integrate the real world assets with blockchain technology. The native token $ONDO has performed exceedingly well since its launch in January18th, 2024. The tokenized products offered by the project have a bearing to US treasuries and the US money market funds. After keenly reading about this project it is quite clear that it is a fine blend of tradfi and defi product services. With this immense usecase, $ONDO will do very well. Looking at these, T1 platforms like Bitget have listed it and the price action is quite fair thus.        
    • You all will agree with me that many of us tends to focus on big names like BTC, ETH, SOL, and XRP. I've followed this trend too. But lately, I've realized there's a whole world of opportunities beyond these mainstream coins. Taking a closer look at the market: BTC and ETH haven't doubled since the start of 2024. Meanwhile, some lesser-known crypto projects have shot up by 400% and more. I am not talking about memecoins  Just today while reading an article about ONDO and ZEEBU published by Bitget, I was amazed to see the incredible growth these two tokens have undergone in the past few months. While ONDO deals with tokenized real-world assets, ZEEBU is a loyalty token for smoother global transactions, rewarding users along the way. Both have seen incredible growth recently. Sure, holding BTC has its perks, but tokens like ONDO and ZEEBU are gaining traction fast. They've already hit billion-dollar market caps from humble beginnings. It seems like these underdog projects might be the ones to watch during this bullish phase. But the challenge remains: how do we identify gems in this evolving landscape?
