Hi guys, I happened to short ftse100 out of market hours - using IGindex SB account just when it fell to around 4420. I gained about 500 quid on that trade in about 5 seconds. Here's the catch, IGindex took money earned on that trade from my account in form of a 'cash correction' this morning.
When I called them and asked for the explanation, they said that market went crazy yday, prices weren't real and its only fair if they cancelled all the transactions (after they have been closed).
They also mentioned that they refunded guys who incurred a loss as well on that trade. So 1) what do you think about this practice? (considering the very nature of the SB business and quote system they provide)
2) have any of you guys who traded at the time got similar experience?
Hi There,
I too had an open position last night on the dow-my stop was 80 points from the close-as the market re-opened i was apparently stopped out-the market was below my stop for 3-4 seconds yet on my statement the time the stop was executed was 10 minutes later when the price had pretty much returned to the closing levels-(it was back up there about 15-20 secs after the restart)--IGINDEX Just said tough-
