Do you know much about HL's policy re. limit orders? iWeb have a great feature, in which if you have say £1000 in your account and 5 different stocks on your "current wish list" then you can setup limit orders for all 5 stocks each for a maximum value of that £1000. Basically whichever stock hits its limit price first is the one which is purchased. IMO this can work out very well for broadening one's scope but with a smallish cash allocation.
Alas neither AJBell nor II implement this feature, instead once a single limit order is configured the allocated total cash is ringfenced and cannot be used in the consideration for another more advantageous purchase should that manifest in the meantime.
As I said Iweb have this implementation in their limit order execution policy (which is amazing because their ISA account is v cheap). So I wondered if you could comment on whether HL do this?
For that matter does anyone else on here know of a platform with a policy simi!ar to iWeb's?
Thanks Matt
Not explored limit orders on either, I'm afraid.
Have a rummage on the HL site, it is pretty good/explanatory
