Hi Chris, I found a similar topic..... looks like it is the same thing, different market...

Just ticking to notify me of replies...

Hi Chris, I'm a newbie so can't help, but can support you 🙂 I also want to follow the ASX200 but IG's Australia 200 values are different to the ASX200. For example today, the ASX200 closed at 5488 as per the asx website. It is also 1 hour after closure, so no delay in this figure. However, checking IG Australia 200 graph with 1 hour intervals, if I go to 3pm, it shows it closed at 5514 !!! Also, throughout the day, it simply never matched. All I want to understand is whether or not it is the same thing. Different prices don't worry me (as it is the trend that is important), but if it is something different to the ASX 200, then I need to know. Can someone enlighten us? Please???

I'm a new trader too searching about trailing. I came across the same problem. I cannot place an ORDER with a trailing stop. I checked open and closed markets, same restriction. IG only allows a normal or guaranteed stop on an ORDER. However, the option is there for a DEAL. So if you go with a DEAL and accept the market price, you can use a trailing stop, but if you want to set your price first with an ORDER, you can't - doesn't make sense. Also, you can not combine a guaranteed and trailing stop. That would be great if you could - the features exist, but not together 😞 Ideally I want to combine a guaranteed and trailing stop on an ORDER. That way, I get all benefits of setting a price I think is value, more profits if the market goes my way and certain risk if it doesn't.
