Hi, I’m new to IG, I’m confused about the size of “trade size”, how large is one size if measured by USD?

Hi, it's going to depend on what you are trading, if you look at the top of the IG welcome page and click on 'Markets to trade' and select from the list there will be a link to product details as in the example below for commodities.

My advice is practice the demo account for about two years until you truly understand what you are doing, i trade full time, mainly on another good plateform, understanding size is important, google is your friend, use it

  • JamesIG changed the title to How large is one trade size?

refering to SpreadBet?

the size is how much your bet is per market move (tick) .

try the demo account for free to get a feel for how the system works. Risking on a live account will cost you.

start small size (bet) and move up as you build strategy.
