Trading

After the registration process is complete, you will be able to trade.

Once you have selected the stocks that you wish to trade in through our i.nvest platform, you can call our dealing desk where our dealers will take your order over the phone.

Our dealing desk is open between 8am – 4.30pm (Monday-Friday) UK time for trading on international markets.

Trades will only be placed when the relevant International Market is open. For example trade orders for the US received before 2.30pm UK time will be actioned once the US market has opened at 2.30pm. Similarly Hong Kong trades will only be sent between 8am – 9am UK time and any orders after this will be held by us until the following day.

You can view and manage UK and international investments in one account.

Risk Warnings

The value of your investments and any income from them can go up or down and you might get back less than the amount you originally invested. Foreign markets will involve different risks than UK markets. In some cases risks will be greater. The potential for profit or loss from transactions on foreign markets or in foreign currency denominated markets will be affected by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.

You should read the following documents before you call to make your trade:
