  1. Hi there

    Considering changing my platform to IG and familiarizing myself with the IG REST API. Is there a REST API method to find out the minimum trailing step? Is there also a way to set this value myself?

    I have tried (GET /markets) for UC.D.NVDA.CASH.IP  (NVIDIA CORP) and I am able to find the minimum stop distance but not trailing step as per the below json snippet:

        "dealingRules": {
            "minStepDistance": {
                "unit": "PERCENTAGE",
                "value": 0.1
            },
            "minDealSize": {
                "unit": "POINTS",
                "value": 1.0
            },
            "minControlledRiskStopDistance": {
                "unit": "PERCENTAGE",
                "value": 10.0
            },
            "minNormalStopOrLimitDistance": {
                "unit": "POINTS",
                "value": 20.0
            },
            "maxStopOrLimitDistance": {
                "unit": "PERCENTAGE",
                "value": 90.0
            },
            "controlledRiskSpacing": {
                "unit": "POINTS",
                "value": 100.0
            },
            "marketOrderPreference": "AVAILABLE_DEFAULT_OFF",
            "trailingStopsPreference": "AVAILABLE"

     

    At time of writing, the minimum stop distance as per the IG online platform is 20 which matches minNormalStopOrLimitDistance, but the minimum trailing step is 27 which I cannot find anywhere in any of the REST API methods.

     

    Thanks in advance!
