-

-
Pay only £1.50 for each trade
The cost of a regular investment is £1.50 per trade compared to £10.99 for a one-off trade
How does regular investing help to smooth out market fluctuations?
For example, let’s say you have £1,200 to invest. Below we compare buying £1,200 worth of ABC company shares in January against investing £100 per month over the whole year.
As you can see in this example, although there are share price fluctuations, investing regularly has helped to smooth them out because you buy more shares when the price is low and fewer when the price is high. Please note that this is only an example and the share price may not always work to your advantage.
