Minimum CFD Trade Size on FTSE


Recommended Posts

Morning,

I've been merrily trading FTSE for nearly a couple of months, with deal sizes of £0.13 or £0.15 per point. I woke this morning to find that the minimum size had increase to £0.50/point. Have I missed a communication from IG on this? Is my account misbehaving?
Thanks.....

Hi, if this was a recent new account there is a limited period where you can use a lower than normal minimum size but will convert to normal mins after the period has expired. 

IG's MT4 platform has much lower minimums than the web based platform.

Thank you. Makes sense. Looking back it's actually 30 days, bang on, so that explains it. I'll just need to up my capital to compensate!

    • Dear @Dan_SB, You have the option to add a trailing stop on the deal ticket just like setting a regular stop. To do this, you will need to specify both the stop distance, which is the same as a normal stop and the trailing step. Here are the steps to add a trailing stop on the deal ticket: 1. Click on the drop-down menu under ‘stop’ 2. Select ’trailing’ 3. Enter your stop and trailing step where prompted. Enter your stop and trailing step where prompted NB: The trailing stop option will not be available on the deal ticket if you are placing a working order.
