I was just doing a manual trade on the IG Platform and I couldn’t change my stops! The reason / problem (whatever it is) is a manual version of what we regularly experience using our Auto-Systems in Real Live. I added below to the bottom of an IG Thread, but thought I’d reproduce it here as it answers a few questions ( in my mind anyway). Full Thread is here and you don’t have to be logged into IG to read it. https://community.ig.com/forums/topic/6693-moving-the-stop-loss/
Don’t you mean you can ‘pretend’ to move them? As they just snap back again as soon as you click anywhere just as the OP says.

I just tried to move my limit stop 1000 points away (as a Test) and it still wouldn’t accept it … it snapped back to 6 points above current Price.

One can’t help thinking that the ‘IG View’ is that there is a high probability that News or maybe even just current Price Action is going to result in a good rise (I was Long the DJI) and so IG are making sure we get stopped out with minimum profit??

Damned annoying anyway … whatever the reason??

If it is a glitch then it needs fixing asap??
