Can I trade shares with IG Markets?

[self]

Hi

So basically I'm after a broker who can offer me a trading platform to trade the FTSE. I've looked at E-trade UK, Selftrade and IG Markets so far. IG Markets is the sort of thing I'm after. Can anyone confirm if I can trade shares with them please?

Thanks alot.

You mean, as in real shares with voting rights and all that? No, IG Markets don't trade in shares, but they do offer markets in CFDs and Spreadbets for individual shares.

E-trade UK used to be good but I haven't used them in years so can't say whether they still are.

Of couse you can trade shares in IG.
As you talking about IG Market I assume you mean trading CFDs and IG offer you indices, individual shares, commodities, forex and much more.
