How do I set my preferences?

IG trading platform gives you more control than ever over how your deals are executed.

Control how we execute opposing positions on the same market. We recommend netting off, but you can change your default setting to force open.
Choose to show advanced price and fill options on your deal tickets, or to remember your settings per market.
