Trade Price

Hi all,

Anyone shed some light on the share prices bought on our behavles by freetrade. I put an order in for £50 of Barclays shares before trading opened, price overnight was £1.50, price purchase by freetrade at 8:06am was £1.584516, what’s going on, is this hidden commissions?

Thanks in advance,

Jason

Hi @wibblywobbly99

When you submit an order out of market hours the price that is displayed is just indicative based on the last trade price. It is not a guaranteed price that you’ll achieve. Barclays reported earnings today and opened higher as a result this morning. It looks like your order executed just after the market open at this higher price.

All fees and costs are disclosed in the contract note.

Let me know if this helps or if you have any more questions.

Magic, thanks for clearing that up.

Cheers,

Jason
