Having trouble with CFD account


Recommended Posts

Hi all, 

This is my first time in an IG live CFD account. I am having trouble with changing my guaranteed stop loss to normal stop loss. 

I have used the demo CFD account for a few weeks and it could easily change it with no problem.

Another problem is that the guaranteed to stop is forcing me to have a huge gap (min displayed).  The share price is $2.13 and stop loss minimum is about $1.044. This is absurd!

I've attached a photo of the problem if someone could please help me. My account is Australia based. 

Thanks,

Hi, the 'Deal' ticket won't make any sense because the market is closed and can't take instant execution 'at market' orders (see there is no spread) . Try the 'Order' ticket instead but there will probably still be a very large guaranteed stop amount due to probably weekend high volatility.

Thanks for your reply,

I have tried Order ticket and US market ticker Amazon which is currently open.  See photo attached

But i am still having the same problem with the huge stop loss minimum and cannot change stop loss to Normal.

I figured that my account status is Limited- Account, hence this is why  i cant change stop loss setting?

How would i resolve this issue, please advise.

Thanks

If you are able/eligible for a normal account the option to switch should be in the My IG dashboard > settings  list.

    • Market Breakdown | WTI Oil, EURUSD, GBPNZD, EURAUDHere are the updates & outlook for multiple instruments in my watchlist.1️⃣ WTI Oil daily time frame️The market is trading in a long term bearish trend .After the last sharp bearish movement, the market is steadily recovering.Ahead, I see a major horizontal supply area.Probabilities are high, that the next bearish wave will initiate from there.2️⃣ EURUSD daily time frameAfter a breakout of a solid daily resistance, the market is preparing for its retest.Watch carefully the underlined zone and look for buying opportunities from there.3️⃣ EURAUD weekly time frameThe pair is currently approaching a weekly horizontal resistance cluster.Taking into consideration, that the pair is quite overbought, probabilities will be high to see a pullback from that4️⃣ GBPNZD daily time frameThe pair is currently retesting a broken neckline of an ascending triangle . As we discussed earlier, the trend line of a triangle and its neckline compose a contracting buy zone now.Chances will be high that the next bullish wave will initiate quite soon.For Additional confirmation use: Divergence Indicators
    • #CHFJPY: Classic Bearish Setup 🇨🇭🇯🇵   🔻CHFJPY has nicely respected a confluence zone based on a horizontal 4H resistance and a 0.5 retracement of the last bearish impulse.   The price formed a double top pattern on that and broke its neckline.   Probabilities will be high that the pair will drop lower soon. Goals: 141.172 / 140.363
