- You experience a system 'limitation' on the value of the instrument you would like to buy or sell. In order to keep our costs low and make the platform as intuitive and easy-to-use as possible, our EasyEquities platform is an execution system rather than an order entry system. Should you experience a limit on a particular security and want to buy more of the security than the platform will allow at one time, you are able to do multiple buy transactions to reach the desired total amount you want to buy.
