    Thanks, gave this a bash earlier today.

    Looks like you cannot trade etfs though which is a bit of a pity. The FAQs are clear on LSE-listed shares in GBX, but it looks like LSE-listed etfs are excluded.

    They give real time price info, that might be why and traders love etf

    Investment funds a poor substitute maybe
