Becuse your broker is not a broker but a CFD bucket shop and that is HOW THEY EARN MONEY.

How much in fees do you pay? 0 - well, guess what, changing prices is where they make the money. Ups. See, "real" brokers charge all kinds of fees for every transaction and list them all separately - and are thus not allowed to modify prices.

Heck, they even say so on their website. "Share CFD trading". Buying a CFD != Buying the stock.
