First Share Purchase

[Guest Philipus]

I have yet to buy my first share for myself. I shall be buying for investment for the moment ie buy low first and hopefully sell high later.

I notice that I must pick an order type when placing an order.  I have found 6 order types that I could choose from.

Is there any education on the IG site that tells me the pros and cons of each. I can find about CFD and spread betting but as yet nothing about the basics of my first purchase.
 
Which Order Type would you recommend for a newbie like me.

Hi @Philipus,   take a look at this page for share dealing order types on IG;
