Hi,

Are buy limit orders available on IG or any other brokers ?

To limit slippage!

 

Thanks

Hi, the platform auto calcs whether the buy order is a stop or limit order by the position of your entry point. Placing a pending order in the market may reduce or negate slippage compared to a 'at market' order (instant execution buy or sell order).

not sure about the new share dealing platform but it is based on the sb and cfd platforms which do.

trying to figure out how to add a limit buy price to my CFD orders ... 

to avoid the order being filled at a much higher price than I ordered at

A buy limit order is an entry order to go long which is set below the current price and won't be triggered until market price comes back down to the entry level so won't trigger above it, there might be some slippage around it but that would mean you were getting a better price, if the slippage is too far the entry order won't be filled.

If you are worried about getting large slippage on a buy stop entry order then as above if outside the tolerance the trade open won't be executed. Slippage is more a problem for exiting trades where if no guaranteed stop price can jump you normal stop.

    • If XION delivers what is allocated to the contributors, eligible users will eat, but I heard airdrop will be on a 48-month linear, which sounds unnecessary long to me. I wasn't part of the early adopters, but I purchase a little on bitget premarket because from my research xion has a solid usecase and the total supply is 200m, which is very good. 
    • I recently discovered Magic Eden (ME), a multi-chain NFT marketplace that's redefining how we interact with NFTs and Web3. and i think is a good idea get into if you are familiar with NFTs, gaming, DAOs, or launchpads, this platform is worth checking out. Magic Eden isn’t just another marketplace; it’s designed to make NFT trading and creation simpler and more accessible for everyone. ME also offers incredible features like marketplace aggregation, which pulls NFT listings from various sources to ensure the best pricing and selection, and its Launchpad, which supports creators with everything from minting to marketing. Their commitment to innovation and security makes it a trusted choice for both creators and traders. There’s a great opportunity right now to get involved. ME’s pre-market trading is live, with the price currently at $3.61, up from $2.70 just four days ago. That’s an impressive return if you got in early! You can trade it on exchangers like Bitget before the official listing, giving you an early advantage. If you're looking to stay ahead in the NFT and crypto world, this is an opportunity worth exploring.
    • A while back, I read this quote: “Technology is best when it gets out of the way and lets us focus on what truly matters.” It stuck within me tbh, because truly in a world chasing shiny new gadgets, we often miss the point. how tech can evolve to meet our needs. That’s why I’ve been looking into adaptive AI projects, and $GAME recently caught my eye when I came across its most recent listing on bingx with a good price trend.  A few years ago, I worked on a logistics project using AI to optimize routes. It was fine, until the unexpected happened. The system couldn’t learn from past mistakes or adjust dynamically. Frustrating, right? Now, with projects like $GAME, the idea of AI that remembers, learns, and adapts feels like the future. It’s not just about solving problems in front of us but growing alongside us. Whether it’s in gaming, healthcare, or logistics, this kind of adaptive tech could change everything. It’s not about hyping $GAME, it’s about the broader idea of AI systems evolving instead of staying static. From all I’ve said you think we heading into a new era of tech that grows with us, or is this just another buzzword?
