    Bonjour!

    What’s the difference between:

    Buy 10 CONTRACTS at market  and   Buy 10 SHARES at market? and Buy 10 Lot at market?

    I searched through the manual and the website but couldn’t find any information.

    Cheers.

    Bonjour 🙂 They are all the same / equivalent , you don’t need to worry about which one to use in your code. These instructions were created long time ago for paper trading in prorealtime software, before real automated trading capabilities through IG protocol which don’t mind about them.
