TL;Dr - live with it
It’s a free country. Everyone have the right to have their own views and decide to keep it private or share it regardless of everyone else’s own views.
Absolutely. And it also seems like absolutely justifiable to hold the view that there’s other more relevant matters to prioritize.
Having divergent views to our own is one of the price tags of freedom. A price I’m willing to pay. And charge
It would affect me, as I am invested GME - I am also a realist and know that all of this is based mainly off of hope, rather than something that may actually happen.
tl;dr - Wasn’t taking suggestions.
Exactly my point. It is a free country. I’m free to complain about whatever I want. It is also clear that Freetrade is free to ignore the opinions and suggestions of its userbase. But as a customer who is paying for a service and has a stake in the service operating as well as possible, I don’t stand to benefit from not talking about it.
@jspen - I apologize for the somewhat sharp response. I just have really spent too much time on this forum without commenting and it really does seem primed to speak against any implication that the app is not perfect.
No need to apologise, I’ll be stood beside you if it hits £25k begging for an increase in the limit, but reality tells me it’s not something we’ll be experiencing.
Hope you cash out with some solid GME gains though 
Hoping the same for you, friend.
I don’t have my entire livelihood riding on this, but I know for sure some people do. For at least a fair chunk of those people, I would not be surprised if Freetrade is where they would flock to - the app is otherwise very good.
Even there is a 0.01% chance of happening - that occurence could be lifechanging for those who are affected by it. In those moments, they will need every last bit of hope and luck to be on their side. FT has an opportunity to reduce the risk those people are exposing themselves to, and it would be neglectful to not try to make that a reality.
Besides, having millionaires on your platform that are very happy with it and more than willing/able to pay for the premium of an app they were thankful for would be a win/win situation, don’t you think? 
Precisely. And everyone else is free to agree or disagree. And free to decide to keep it for themselves or share it.
Options have to be made. Not all the features I want have been implemented. It doesn’t mean I’m being ignored.
By all means talk about whatever you consider relevant whenever you consider pertinent. That’s what I try to do. In some occasions to express shared views, others to manifest disagreement. That’s how life works outside 1984
Yeah, and this is a feature that obviously I’m not the only one asking for. If you don’t try and raise your issues with the team in charge of addressing them then you are just hoping that they read your mind.
I do find it ironic that you’d throw that reference in the mix when it’s you acting on behalf of the majority trying to reduce and minimize any outspoken opinions. Maybe take a break from the forums and give it a read yourself for an afternoon? Just a suggestion. 
I work in industry-grade SaaS solutions; it’s not that I don’t recognize that there is obviously a feature list and release schedule. But when you have a high opportunity cost and have already built a way to implement the solution (remember how they have already increased the cap in the past) then it’s exactly these kinds of conversations that are the most necessary - we need to show the devs and the FT team that this is something that is wanted by their community.
Outside of 1984 do we report all comments we don’t like as spam? Having them removed from direct view given the lofty weight of our profiles. This is enough to make me and I’m sure others look elsewhere. Enjoy your 3% gains.
It quite literally is the same person creating multiple accounts asking for the same thing. At least try changing the tone of voice.
Take a look at the Ideas section where there are lots of feature requests that are more sensible for FT to prioritise.
GME is at $300 now so there’s no reason why FT should worry about this or any other stock reaching $25k.
It may be that it’s super easy to increase the cap, might just be changing a config file or something. But if that’s that case why not do it when it’s likely to be needed. It’s looking pretty unlikely that GME is going to go to the moon IMO. And if it does it won’t do it instantly without warning
On the other hand maybe it’s not so easy, maybe they need to negotiate with their US partners to support it. Is it FT or Drivewealth that has this limit?
Anyone else unable to set a limit order (sell)?
When I try I am told:
"Error placing order
There was a problem while placing your order; it may or may not have succeeded.
Please check your activity feed."
Nothing has been added/changed in my activity feed…
That’s fair, @Dave - again, not trying to just be argumentative for the sake of it! 
I am just weary that if it is a front-end change that needs to be done (i.e they set it as an in-app block as opposed to the way that the app would talk to their server) as opposed to just a config change, that the FT team will likely need to go through some sort of Change Request / App Update process to get those changes on the Google Store which would lead to some time to roll-out to users, etc; just overhead that adds time, which is what I feel is the critical factor in the equation.
With any overhead like that, it’d be something that I feel would be better served to be done ahead of any major movements rather than after.
@UncapMeGoddamnIt @Beneon83 how about creating an idea and put it out there so that everybody have the option to vote for it?
Would a title like “Increase the maximum order cap to £50000” be of interest?! Or would some other amount be more convenient? A better way to post the title perhaps?
I’m happy to do it for you if you so desire
Revolut use Drivewealth and they have a cap of $10k. This is the same as FT was a year or so ago before they found a way to raise it.
I realise I probably have some inherent bias towards Freetrade because I invested in them, but I try to be objective. I’ve never flagged a post for being critical.
If I can join this argument, its perfectly fine to ask for the cap to be raised, haven’t seen a single person question that.
Find the topic, vote on it, rant a bit if you like. What has upset some on the forum is people creating new posts on the topic, and spamming other topics for this purpose (e.g. this one). That I guess is why people have been reported. FT read every single post, they know what you want and will work on it when they want to.
And I appreciate that, @Dave. It’s difficult to be differentiated when arguments are involved, and I really do have very few niggles with the platform as a whole. I even went so far as to pay for premium and as $GME is behind the paywall, I am arguing under the assumption that the other users in this thread have done the same and have a vested interest.
GME opened today at 268 and in that time the stock has raised by 34%. It’s highly volatile, to say the least. But this is not going to be the first nor will it be the last time situations like this happen.
But as an early adopter and investor, I hope you see that the people in this thread are hoping for big things to happen. Things that we are hoping Freetrade will help us realize. We are hoping for the best and just hyper-aware of all the things that might go wrong.
I am fairly certain I’m just one person with one account, but maybe you know better?
Or maybe, just possibly, it’s because there’s more than one person who wants a specific feature to be implemented, especially when money is involved?
Thousands of users; one forum to really talk about it and hope that the devs read it - idk, just a thought.
Here’s a decent post with some DD on why 19th March has been touted as a key date, definitely worth reading and listening to his interviews on YouTube
I think there are a few catalysts there which could result in real problems for shorts.
Also " GameStop Corp. (NYSE: GME) , today announced that it will report fourth quarter and fiscal year 2020 earnings results after the market closes on Tuesday, March 23, 2021"
I would absolutely love it if they acquired Steam or something nuts. Wonder if they would entertain the idea of facilitating digital trade ins, not sure if this would be profitable but it’s definitely a problem with digital at the moment.
