But if you are 'holding' open positions, don't you get hit with the Quarterly Fee (AUD$50 for me) which is a major consideration I wish that I had known about 😒

Yes you are right and that's about 27.55 euros for me its too much im also considering different options. I might not go with this option.

@Karamat,

It is good that you know which companies shares you are about to invest in. 

It is also good that you are investing before you are trading. Do you have an investment plan and investment strategy? If not then I would strongly urge you to think about having one.

I do not use IG's shares account as my shares are held with Hargreaves Lansdown. However, I assume once you have bought (BUY), you simply do nothing. This would meaning you are holding the shares as long as you do not (SELL). There would be no 'button' for holding. You simply buy and then do not sell which is the equivalent of holding. 

Please do consider looking into and researching in regards to a 'Investment Plan' and 'Investment Strategy'.  

Have a look at the following from IG:
