New share dealing platform


Recommended Posts

Is there likely to be an update to the share dealing platform to bring it in line with the the spread betting and CFD platform, I worry that IG don't value their share dealing arm of the business as much as the CFD and spread bet which is a shame as their share dealing is top-drawer.

I somewhat agree. I would like to see better coordination amongst all the accounts so that I can switch easily between them. At the moment I have to use subterfuge and multiple logins to monitor spread betting, ISA and share platforms visible simultaneously and the differences in the platforms adds to the confusion.

When you buy calls/ puts they have limited risk on the leveraged platforms. 

Yes, call options are a great idea for that reason.

Would love to see call options available for everything on the leveraged platform :)

The downside to you is less money on commissions, right?  As people aren't getting stopped out by those stupid spikes.

With all market, except CFD equity options, we still take spread so we would happily have clients trade options With CFD equity options we charge commission. 

The reason we don't offer it for every market is there's not as much demand and we have to buy/ sell these in the underlying every time someone trades. Meaning, if it's something that hardly anyone is buying we would have to go out a buy/ sell very small positions.

Hi Charlotte,

The new Share dealing account looks outstanding, but missing a vital risk management tool that the CFD and Spreadbetting accounts have, Stop Losses.

Please could you feedback to the Development team of the Share desk and kindly ask if possible to add this important feature to this account? Has this already been raised from other traders hence already in the pipeline to roll it out pretty soon?

 

Many thanks,

Denis

    • Currently run multiple portfolios across ISA, SIPP and a GIA account mostly invested in shares, ETFs and smart portfolios.  There doesnt seem to be any sensible way of looking at historical P&L across my accounts or even on a per account basis.  Tracking this myself in a spready is dull dull dull. I know IG used to be a fairly bare bones brokerage, but is trying to market itself as an investment platform (c/f Cricket ads).  IG clearly have the required data and this is pretty core capability for an investment platform. Where is it?
    • Coffee Elliott Wave Analysis Coffee prices are beginning to turn lower after completing a key technical chart pattern. The commodity has been on a strong upward trajectory since October 2023, but a corrective decline now seems likely before the next leg of the rally resumes, continuing the bullish sequence from late 2023. This analysis explores the potential for a pullback and identifies key levels where the next move higher could emerge.   Long-Term Chart Analysis Coffee prices have historically traded within a wide range, with support levels between $40 and $55, and resistance levels ranging from $276 to $337. The current bullish cycle for coffee started back in May 2019, marking the beginning of a significant upward move. The first phase of this cycle peaked in February 2022, when coffee prices reached notable highs. A corrective second phase followed, ending with a bottom in January 2023. After this low, the third and ongoing phase of the bullish cycle began, and it is evolving as part of a larger corrective pattern within the broader Elliott Wave structure.   The third phase of the rally appears to be developing as a corrective wave, which is part of the larger impulse that started in 2019. With this in mind, the current price action suggests that further gains may come, but not before a significant pullback takes place.   Daily Chart Analysis On the daily chart, the third phase of the recovery completed its first leg, labeled wave (W), in April 2023. This was followed by a three-wave corrective structure, wave (X), which ended at 143.70 in October 2023, confirming support at that level. The subsequent rally represents wave (Y) of the primary degree wave W (circled), completing the bullish phase.   Wave (Y) of W (circled) appears to have formed an ending diagonal structure, signaling the exhaustion of the uptrend. With this structure potentially completed, a corrective pullback in wave X (circled) is expected. Given the sub-wave structure, this correction could take the form of a double zigzag, a complex corrective pattern that typically leads to further downside before the uptrend resumes.   H4 Chart Analysis On the H4 chart, wave (Y) of W (circled) has completed a diagonal pattern, indicating that the rally is running out of steam. The immediate decline that has followed can be identified as wave W of (W) of Y (circled), the first phase of the larger corrective structure. A bounce in wave X is anticipated, but it is expected to remain below the August 2024 high. Once this bounce is complete, another leg lower in wave Y of (W) is likely, completing the initial correction phase.   Thus, while the long-term trend remains bullish for coffee, the market appears to be in the midst of a bearish retracement that could extend lower over the coming weeks. This corrective phase will likely persist as long as the August 2024 high is not breached, offering traders an opportunity to reassess before the next major rally unfolds.   Technical Analyst : Sanmi Adeagbo Source : Tradinglounge.com get trial here!
