Share dealing


Recommended Posts

 I cannot understand my total account value in my shares ISA when I have open positions, find it confusing. 

I bought seven shares, and the total profit and loss in the positions tab seems to be more ( if you add them up ) than total account value profit and loss. Even after factoring in trading fees, it does not tally up. I have noticed this before, a few pounds missing there. I've been in this positions for weeks now and they are doing the same thing, if that's the case, it's a waste of money holding shares in IG Index.

Hi @MonoxyCzupi,

Thank you for you message. It seems that you have a normal share dealing account and not an ISA account.
In terms of the P/L ,The stocks might be in different currencies.  Once you add the position tab to your Workspace, you will be able to set the P/L in your base currency:image.png

You will find more details on ISA accounts here.

All the best - Arvin

    • In my opinion, higher lev is for scalpers only! For day or swing traders, either spot or lower lev is always recommended!
    • Just now, according to Glassnode data, the number of addresses holding more than 100 BTC has reached a four-month low, currently standing at 15,955.
    • Bitcoin and other major crypto experienced a dip in value on Thursday, erasing gains made earlier in the week. The decline came after the Federal Reserve signaled that interest rates would remain high for an extended period, with Bitcoin retreating 2.3% to $26.5K. Despite the bearish pressure,  the founder and CEO of Bitcoin joint mining company Xive,  Didar stated that the stagnant rate increase is positive for Bitcoin. He suggested that this could reduce the attractiveness of mainstream financial assets to institutional investors in the long term, potentially driving a new rally in Bitcoin's price. Major altcoins and exchange tokens also struggled on Thursday, with ETH changing hands at $1,585, down about 2.6% from Wednesday. Other altcoins such as BNB and BGB also experienced losses. Despite these challenges, some analysts believe that Bitcoin is likely to remain within its recent range between $25,000 and $30,000. Riyad from digital asset data platform Kaiko, noted that the market needs a catalyst to mount any serious rally.  What are your thoughts?
