  1. I currently hold a stock on the US market in GRBK (Green Bricks).

    I noticed at close of market Friday the price shows differently to the graph, which only shows the graph candle at half the value of the stock price.

    When markets open Monday will this correct itself and more importantly not trigger any stop-loss I already have in place?

    Thank you

  2. Quite new to Forex, and a little unsure on trading hours at weekends.

    I'm holding two short positions

    AUD/USD & GBP/USD.

    Both doing OK, am I able to continue holding these and if required selling them at any time over the weekend, or does there come a point they just freeze and restart Sunday evening, when Oz trading resumes?

    Thank you

     

  3. Something of a newbie question:

    So I own a stock purchased on the IG platform on NYSE market.

    I set a stop loss to protect my position, but why am I not able to then set a sell limit - stock reaches a certain level and sell?

    First I need to remove my stop loss and the protection this offers to have a sell limit in place, can I not have both, or is there some other function I should be using to achieve this?

    Thank you

  4. I would like to look at trading a few FX trades for several weeks on each trade, potentially up to 1-2 months.
    I've been doing a little day trading on these and occasionally overnight.
    What's the most cost effective way to trade FX over longer time periods?

    I have a regular share dealing and SB account.

    Thank you

  5. I'm a little confused about a couple of pieces of information coming up on my 'Trade Anaytics' and I wonder if anyone here could expand further on these to help me better understand?

    #1: I have a small warning box displaying the following text.
    'Your average hold time on indices is less than 1 day. It’s usually cheaper to hold futures contracts after 3–6 days.'

    When I click on 'Learn more' it does not really explain anything as to why I am trading incorrectly. At the moment I'm tending to trade in small amounts on indices usually just for a few hours maximum. Very occasionally I have held a couple of spread bets overnight, is this the reason why I am getting the warning?

    #2: Gross Exposure
    The number here explains that if it's a high number I am at higher risk. However I am only running a basic traders account and using no leverage, therefore my risk can only ever be the approximate capital I have on account, correct?
    In otherwords should I simply ignore this number based on my current account status?

    Thank you

  6. As a shareholder in this company I was recently offered a share rights issue to purchase further non-tradeable shares.
    Having now purchased these what's the fundamental difference between them and regular tradeable stocks?

    At any point in the future am I able to dispose of these or are they simply shares from which I may recieve additional dividends in the future?

    Thank you
