[Am I being ripped off on the exchange rate?]

Problem was I made a decision to sell based on seeing the profit (& placed the limit order),

If I knew clearly it would be a loss I would not have made a decision to sell it .

I chose IG to be mainly able to trade low volumes and access the US market without large capitals onto each stock

I think the problem is on the visibility of the currency (£ versus$) and I am now a bit more educated

Sorry.. I could not edit my message above...

I found a similar markup between buy and sell rate almost within 15 minutes of buy and sell

and computed you lose 1% of value between the two on $ purchase/ sales

Misleading since I thought I sold for a $ profit and ended up in a £ loss😪

[ARK Innovation ETF - Unable to purchase]

This does not help u customers. ARK are one of the upcoming providers. IG please pursue with them to get compliance and make this available to EU / UK customers

[Units of prices shown : Pence for UK and Dollars for US shares]

My first day as a member and I was getting familiar with the new platform the data,multiple features and the layout

One of my main concerns was the UK prices are shown in pence (& possibly also EU market), but US prices are shown in Dollars (& not pence) and 

the whole lot is shown on one pane and without Units of the currency..which I thought needed to be improved

 

[Clarification on IG Fees]
