Hi, never heard of the dealing desk not being able to close a live account trade by phone before, contact them again and log the call.

If the market is moving fast, you haven't got time to close the app, find the IG phone contact and call IG,  verify yourself and close the trade. All takes 4 -5 minutes. Too late Loss occurred.

I opened a live buy for TCG and wanted to exit at a small profit. To my annoyance there is no close position on the mobile app.

I am away on my holidays with no access to a computer. 

Can you close a position using the mobile app.

IG staff have been as useful as a chocolate fireguard.

 

Hi, I just had the same situation. I opened a trade on the SPY200 using my Mobile APP and it went up over 100% gain. I tried frantically to close the position on the mobile watching as my profit in the trade diminished. I gave up with the mobile and raced to a computer, open up and logged on but by the time i had opened the chart  I closed for 100% LOSS. Not impressed with IG markets Mobile App.

Easy to place a trade but can't close it when you urgently need to. What's the point of a Mobile App if it doesn't have the functionality.

This is my first trade with IG
