What share was worth £130.26 :thinking:

One of the Corp Bonds?

Wonder if they’ve photoshopped or borrowed the image from somewhere :thinking:

EQQQ is about that much I think

Should have said hello or something first, rude

If my basic kept failing I’d try an instant :woman_shrugging:

I’m curious how much this trader lost due to that rejected single share :joy:

So is this guy having genuine issues placing a trade or is he faking it?

Legit but we don’t know why it’s failing. Could be he’s not allocating enough funds. He is using it to promote Revolut though

I can’t find any ETFs priced +/- £130.26 for yesterday but I’ve not looked exhaustively.

Looks like a ETF because there’s no “Stamp duty” in the screenshot.

If I was cynical, I would suggest that they placed an order they could guarantee would fail based on market conditions.
However, I’m not cynical.

I find funny that he said that he is losing money every day when a good number of securities are going down. By staying in cash he is actually earning :face_with_hand_over_mouth: therefore he should not complain.
I’m really curious what was that single share.

It definitely is NASDAQ 100 (EQQQ) as @Rat_au_van presumed.

Currently at £125 with a 4% drop in the last week.

So Freetrade saved him money by not executing it?

Go Freetrade :boom:

Basically, Revolut is far away from having stock trading or he is trying Freetrade for inspiration :wink:

That’s £5 saving or 4% within a day. With Barclays’ 0.3% interest it would take 15 years to grow from £125 to £130!

But jokes aside, it is still reasonable to expect an execution to be undertaken. Albeit not in the way a said individual articulated it :sweat_smile:

You mean to see what a proper broker should look like? :smiley:

What a ridiculous company if that’s how they behave. And what a stupid person to think the blatent links to revolut would go unnoticed.

Yep, didn’t take long to come out

Joking aside there’s nothing Freetrade can say about this so all we have is speculation. Not sure if there’s much more we can say on this one

Thanks @Rat_au_van and @Vlad for the information on the share in question.

I agree that is reasonable to expect the trade to be executed but without more information is really hard to say the reason why it failed in this case.
Anyway if he was in such a rush to buy he should have chosen the instant trade.

General consensus then is that Revolut are dodgier than the Brexit deal?

lol no, I still have so many questions:

  • why he thought he lost money?
  • when’s the Revolut investing app coming? never(?)
  • why he’s day trading at work?
  • why his day trading strategy involves buying only 1 ETF share?

The list is endless… :man_shrugging:
