Russian related stock trading (e.g. POLY)

Hi,

I notice that it is only possible to sell, not purchase shares in POLY - a company that have a lot of mining operations in Russia.

I understand that other brokers such as Hargreave Lansdown, Interactive Investor, AJ Bell etc all allow this stock to be bought and sold without problem.

Why is this not possible via IG?

Hi @Alfa

Could you please confirm the full name/full ticker of the stock you are querying and we will confirm the reason for the restriction. Some shares in Russian companies are currently suspended on the LSE as a response to the UK sanctions regime. Thanks, OfentseIG

Hi @OfentseIG

Thanks for your reply.  I already understood it was restricted on the system due to being Russia related, but it is not a suspended stock on the LSE.

My question was why IG have this restriction in place when other UK brokers do not?

For example, I have heard from other traders that all the brokers listed below allow this to be freely traded - so it just seems strange that IG disallow it?

Thanks.

    • Cardano (ADA) has seen an impressive 9% increase in price, rising from $0.3251 on September 7 to $0.3545 by September 15. This surge is linked to the announcement from The Artificial Superintelligence Alliance that their FET token is now live on the Cardano blockchain. Why Cardano? The ASI alliance chose Cardano for its strong security, fast transaction speeds, and low fees. This decision has reignited interest in the Cardano ecosystem, and many investors are paying attention. ADA Price Target Looking ahead, analysts believe ADA might aim for $0.5 in the coming days. With a positive Relative Strength Index (RSI) supporting this prediction, the ADA price target of $0.5 seems attainable. A boost in buying volume could help ADA break through this level, and if it does, the next target could be around $0.6. Ecosystem Expansion Cardano is also growing with innovations like the Iagon bridge, which allows asset transfers between Cardano and Ethereum. Additionally, ADA holders are considering investments in promising projects like Rollblock, currently in its 6th presale and promising potential returns of up to 200x. Conclusion As the broader crypto market rebounds, will Cardano continue its upward trend, or will it face challenges ahead? Stay tuned!    
    • Soybean Elliott Wave Analysis The soybean market is currently retracing within a long-term corrective structure that has developed since the peak in June 2022. While short-term upside potential appears likely, the overarching trend suggests that a significant sell-off is poised to resume, potentially driving prices toward the lows seen in 2020. Long-Term Perspective Before the decline that began in June 2022, soybeans experienced a robust bullish impulse wave starting in May 2019, which propelled prices from approximately $806 to significant highs. However, over the past 26 months, the market has surrendered more than two-thirds of those gains. From an Elliott Wave standpoint, the current corrective phase is forming a three-swing pattern, a typical structure within corrective waves that indicates a complex retracement. Daily Chart Analysis On the daily chart, we observe this corrective structure unfolding at the primary wave degree. Wave A reached its conclusion at $1,249 in October 2023, followed by Wave B, which peaked at $1,398 in November 2023. Presently, we are witnessing the formation of Wave C to the downside. Within this unfolding Wave C, sub-waves (1), (2), and (2) of 5 have already been completed. The market is now experiencing a retracement in Wave (4), currently trading above the significant level of $1,000. A key question arises: how high can this Wave (4) rally extend? H4 Chart Analysis Zooming into the H4 chart, we find that Wave (4) has completed its first sub-wave, denoted as Wave A. The bullish reaction observed since September 11, 2024, suggests that Wave B may have concluded. For confirmation that Wave B has indeed ended and that we are transitioning into Wave C, the price must break above the high of Wave A. Should this scenario play out, we could expect Wave C to advance toward the $1,070 level. Alternatively, if the price fails to surpass the high of Wave A, it may indicate that Wave B is set to make another minor leg down, dipping slightly below $1,000 before establishing a solid support base to initiate Wave C.
