3 trades in previous month

Question

Hi.  I am trying to avoid the £10 transaction fee.  I have done 3 trades this month,  March and paid £30 fees.  Do I now have to wait until 1st April to do a transaction free of the £10 charge?  The preview still shows a £10 charge.

Tried phoning the helpline but it was on hold forever.  Any wisdom appreciated - happy to wait till April,  I’d just like to know how it works.

Hi, I don't use that type of account but you might find more info here https://www.ig.com/uk/investments/share-dealing/costs-fees

If no one from the forum is able to answer might be worth repeating the question early next week and tag IG admin so they will be notified they were mentioned in a forum post like @CharlotteIG

Thanks for your post. 

It does have to be 3 trades in the previous month. So if you've made three trades in March you will get free share dealing commission for US shares in April. 

All the best.

Hi Charlotte,

So it's based on calendar month i.e. if you made 3 trade on 31st March you would get free dealing commission in April from the 1st April?

Another question - if you make 3 trades on UK shares does this mean you have free commission the next month on US shares as well, or just UK shares? and vice versa. @CharlotteIG

 

Thanks,

Ed

    • Sainsburys full year earnings and Unilever’s first quarter trading update both say the same thing, UK consumers are in for higher prices. The war in Ukraine, supply chain issues and the effects of ongoing Covid all to blame.      
    • US Dollar (DXY) Daily Price and Analysis US Q1 GDP may stall the greenback’s advance. A 20-year high nears for the US dollar. The multi-month US dollar rally continues with the greenback printing a fresh high today ahead of the first look at US Q1 GDP at 12.30 GMT. The US dollar basket (DXY) has been boosted by renewed weakness in the Euro and the Japanese Yen, as investors move from lower-yielding to higher-yielding currencies, while safe-haven flows continue to benefit the greenback. The US growth release later in the session is expected to show a sharp slowdown from the robust Q4 figure of 6.9%. The markets are currently pricing in growth of just 1% for the first three months of this year, with the slowdown mainly due to a reduction in inventory accrual over the quarter. This release is unlikely to move the greenback, unless there is a large miss or beat, as the Fed believe that 2022 US growth will be robust enough to let them tighten monetary policy sharply without damaging the economy. The latest US Core PCE data – the Fed’s preferred inflation reading – is released on Friday and this may have more effect on the US dollar than today’s GDP data. For all market moving economic data and events, see the DailyFX Calendar. The ongoing US dollar rally has been aided by weakness across a range of G7 currencies including the Euro, the Japanese Yen, and the British Pound. The Euro continues to battle with lowly growth expectations, exacerbated by energy concerns, the British Pound is mired by weak economic data, while the Japanese Yen is in freefall as the BoJ continues with its ultra-loose monetary policy.   The US dollar continues to press higher and looks set to break above 103.96, the March 2020 high. Above here the US dollar would be back at levels last seen nearly two decades ago. The March resistance will likely hold in the short-term, especially with month-end portfolio rebalancing at the end of the week, but US dollar strength is set to continue in the months ahead.
