Any more news on Plus now that we’re close to the release date?

[Robbo]

Freetrade has 200,000 users, this “community” has 2000 active users a month. I assume most users don’t even know this community exists, never mind the stock specific threads…

Full share, or fractional - doesn’t matter.

What’s the mentioned release date for plus?

The forum community has valuable members who might only have a 100 quid pocket money. Let’s not exclude them. We dont need an elite system.

I would just like an investor chat for bigger investors who care about company because they own significant shareholding. Say 10k plus. I expect eventually there will be a select group externally

We don’t need an elite system. What we need is an elite system.

I actually think there should be a sub forum just for Founding Investors.

As a founding member I disagree.I don’t like the idea of excluding people because they couldn’t afford a large enough investment to get Founding Member. An Freetrade investors sub forum would be acceptable, though not sure what it would be used for though

Quite!

Four legs good!

I think it should be this summer, they’re testing it internally at the moment, don’t think we have a precise date as yet:

Plus account

We actually have our first real Plus accounts going already (employees only at this stage). Next up will be our crowdfunding investors that earned the ‘Alpha for life’ reward, to help us test it before shipping to the rest of the community.

I’ve had massive issues with this during trading very volatile stocks with lower volumes during the recent frothiness. I get that batching trades is a part of the business model but some of the price lags/big spread I’ve seen have caused some inadvertently poor decisions.

I’m aware Freetrade has a sticking plaster on this one in the sense that it’s made (relatively) clear that it’s for taking long term positions. The issue with this is that making an app that’s got a UI and UX designed for habitual performance checking and instant buying/selling behaviour due to no fees, inherently drives behaviours towards short termism more than anything else.

Move money available in ISA straight in to the basic account and vice versa without ever exiting the app?
