If you have a Share dealing account you can change the conversion to manual which means we will not convert the funds for you. This can be done on the my IG page by selecting Currency conversion.
If you want this for a leveraged account please reach out to us so we can speak with you over the phone.
All the best
Hi CharlotteIG, I recently found that my Currency conversion setting was set to Manual. However, on recent U.S share sales, the value of these sales went straight into GBP (My share dealings acc is GBP default), while I paid the $15 per share trade cost under the Manual setting instead?
