Hello Anda,
many thanks for your reply.
I tried with IG mobile app, it only shows stop type as none/normal/guarantee. Does not give the monetary amount option as shown in your screenshot.
Let me know if i m wrong - what does points away mean? I called up IG helpline, and I was told 1 point means $1? Lets say, I bought 10 shares @$20 and want to auto sell them at $25. Current market price is $22. So should I set +3 points away? Also, this should be a limit order as per my target auto sell?
As the current market price will continuously change, how does the above +$3 points away work? Again, I am not sure if my concept of points away (as written above) is correct or wrong.Many thanks Anda for your help.
Thanks!

Hello!
I have two questions:1. I am trying to open both long and short positions in the same market for the same stock. I found i must have “force open” activated PLUS there must be stop orders for both order types.
While trying to do so, it is giving me “- + points away” for setting limit and stop orders.I am not sure what does ‘points away’ mean please? I am new to the platform and Have only done normal buy/sell without setting any ‘points away’.
2. Lets say I bought 10 shares @$20 and I want them to get auto sold once the price reaches $25. How do I set this? I saw this same options “points away” which I am not sure how it works.
Many thanks!
How to set a "Limit Sell" Order
in IG Trading Support - Dealing Questions
Posted
Hello IG community!
I need some help with "Limit sell" order. I am able to place orders to "buy" by putting my desired limit buy price. Let's say I placed an order to buy Tesla shares @$180 (limit) and my position gets opened. Once that's open I want to sell it (i.e. close the position) when the price reaches let's say $190. What I want is to set the "limit sell" price and let the IG platform automatically close the position whenever the price reaches $190. Currently, I can only close positions with the current market price and I need to be active in the platform to monitor the price and manually close positions. The US trading market opening time is a bit inconvenient for me (1:30am). Your expert guidance is very much appreciated.
I use the IG Mobile App mostly. But happy to navigate the dashboard via laptop if that's required (I am not sure if the app has any limitations).
Many Thanks!
