staggered attacks against retailers on this, couple of manipulation fines are better for them than that hedge fund going bankruptā¦
Iām surprised FT had all there eggs in one FX basket, thereās a need for transparency on who the FX provider is, let the community know who we are really dealing with and maybe we can have a say on which FX providers are used from here in out.
So are freetrade going to switch suppliers then? Are we going to get refunds on plus memberships that we canāt use?
So, effectively I can buy and sell shares but only as and when the powers to be allow me, or can only make money when somebody else chooses I can. Institutional investors, on the otherhand, can do as they wish. This is, as others have stated, blatant market manipulation.
Exactly, here most people probably donāt care about GME, but this is a gigantic trust problem for Freetrade.
One of those that can break a company like this, based on trust of their users.
They need to handle this properly and clearly, that is not as theyāve done till now with a very generic and pathetic (imho) communication.
they will be, trust the thesis on GME. Short stock donāt expire
I put in an order for a US share a few hours back and it hasnāt gone throughā¦ Still waitingā¦
Same Here.
I see the angry pitchfork brigade are out in force, both here and on the social medias.
And rightly so.
But unless you believe FT can suddenly fire up a FX subsidiary in the next hour, what can they do? I mean, seriously?
How would you communicate better pal when the proverbial is clearly hitting the fan and they are reacting in real time?
There are loads of other great UK Plus stocks like AIM such as gold miners, crypto miners, biotech. Go use it if youāve got it.
Iām not saying your wrong. Maybe telling who the fx provider is can allow people to investigate independently and see FT are on the users side.
They should put pressure on their current provider to reverse this decision by outing them.
Yes, i can see no downsides to outing the bank involved. None.
Lots of UK gems for the taking
Welcome to the free market. If you make shitty decisions and people donāt like it, thatās your fault. Stop protecting suits and banks who donāt care about you.
Totally agree. Name them.
