Trading US Stocks within an ISA

Question

Hi,

I'm currently in the process of moving my ISA to IG and was wondering if it's possible to trade any US stocks or are there restrictions?  

Thanks in advance.

Hi Trendfollower, 

Thanks for the response.  I've just filled out a W8-BEN form online so hopefully I'll have access to most US shares once my ISA has been transferred.

I just tried to order 7 US shares using my current brokers website, and out of the 7 I could only order 1.  Not sure whether the 6 I couldn't buy were small / mid caps and the 1 I could buy was a large cap.  They were :- STNE (this I could have bought), BZUN, HUYA,WB,NIO,IQ & TME (these I couldn't buy).  I'll see if , once my ISA has been transferred, whether or not I can buy these 6 or not.  Will let you know.

    • With Bitcoin aiming for a new ATH, this staking might be the best option to maximum holding
    • Tbh, trading can be frustrating, I keep trying different strategy to perfect my trading skill but all seems to be in vain. Recently, I learnt we can use AI to predict the market to trade, so I decide to start asking AI to analyze when btc is overbought so I can look for short entry but this seems not to work against as most trade I enter end up hitting my SL. I know this is part of the learning process so I don’t risk too much but it hurt to lose fund especially when you are trying your best to make your first positive trade. Sometime, I just feel the market is totally against me and that further discourages me from futures trading. Recently, I got introduced to BTC staking on some platforms like BGBTC on bitget, Babylon chain, Solv protocol, Coredao etc but that doesn’t quench my hunger to understand BTC volatility since I will just stake my btc and earn apr. I want to understand how this volatility works so I can start making something from futures trading rather than just staking to earn apr. Also, I feel staking is for spot traders that intend to hold for a longer period and that doesn’t expose you to the market. I am not like most trader that prioritize profit over knowledge even when that is the final goal.
