#GME already shifted by over 45% in first 15 minutes of trading… its a key time for it to not be working :frowning:

Exactly. Tried buying at market open - it went to pending. Then “Failed”.

Tried again, it is now pending, again.

Quite disappointing, the share went up 45% already since opening.

Currently queueing up all my shares to sell, this even has kind of shown how underequipped this app is.

Cant even ask to sell, just stuck at loading screen for the last 25 minutes.

Not like this our money or anything

Thinking about doing the same… what’s the point if during the high times you can barely get on the app

I’ve been trying to buy a stock for almost 30 mins now, this is ridiculous.

The really stupid thing is that UK market is blocked too, ETFs, everything

Probably going to move to another broker after this, everyone else is making orders and I can’t make one on freetrade.

Do people believe it’s FT who are preventing the buying of shares? Seriously?

Hi Rowan which broker is fulfilling orders seamlessly at the moment? I’d love to know

I appreciate this is not a day trade platform but we are talking about delays over 30min to sell or buy which aren’t great. Plus some of us are actually paid customers with the Plus subscription

Yes, Freetrade are just soooo crooked. Mafia money and everything, so I’ve heard. Also Russians. And the drug cartels. They’re all involved. Oh, the tales I could tell!

Check the execution policy.

I’ve noticed a little slow down when placing orders but they are going though. I’m guessing an include of 20,000+ users in 24 hours is giving them a run for their money. But orders should hopefully be going through

This is the exchange circuit breakers kicking in NOT Freetrade.
