Order Level.....


BDS

Question

If I order a spread bet overnight, and order level of (for example) plus 20, but the share in question opens at +5, is IG compelled to buy it for me at +5, or can they sell it to me at a higher price, say +15 and thus make some margin of their own?

Hi @BDS,

IG can only book deals at market price. The dealing desk can't place a deal at for example 110 while the current price is 100 and use the 10 points as profit. The only revenue is made on commissions.

If you place an limit or stop order for your order to be triggered at specific levels.

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?
