New uncross coming very soonā¦
Argh that is annoying to hear. I should have opened an S&S ISA with FreeTrade.

It shouldnāt matter a large amount in the long run but it would have been nice to get in lower.
Iām slightly worried about when it comes to selling when it peaks and potentially having to 
for a couple hours hoping it stays high.

Yeah the selling part is what Iām concerned about too now.
I do feel like T212 have changed something since youāre enquiry yesterday, last week I had an order open for 2 days and it didnāt go through
ahh man I was trying to get in on this at 5p :ā(

T212 are clearly watchiing this thread and executing GGP
Iāve thrown other SETqx trades at them and they HAVE NOT uncrossed ā¦ (T212 ops quickly looking around their pending orders in the background right now?)
T212 vs FT : Horses for courses. I like both. I use them both. The auction ācanā yield benefits, but immediate execution is comforting. FT customer service is pretty good but my experience of T212 customer service has been āroboticā and no confidence they actually knew what they were talking about. That said - itās free, itās good (mostly). I use both Iāll continue to use both.

Iām now setting an alarm 10mins before each auction so I have time to check what the price is.
I have a FreeTrade general invest account but I really dont want to buy in that especially as it could easily be x10 this year and avoiding CGT.
Thatās where it got really frustrating. After I nudged them to force through the purchases at auction I then ran into a brick wall with customer services who insisted āsome AIM stocks are illiquidā etcā¦ A copy/paste response. When I explained I understood the mechaics of auction trading I still got the same resposne. When I screenshot the order book showing uncrosses and how I should have been in that saleā¦guess what? Same response!

Just got another batch on FT @7.8
So - to my mind - not a lot of point faffing with the opacity of the auction.
Personal choice. I understand savings are savings.
Iād personally choose to get hours of my day back!
That said I am a nerd and I am in lockdown.
Maybe Iāll hack something together for noobs that donāt understand this kinda thingā¦ hmmmā¦ thinking hat on

I kind of want to chuck in a fair amount to this but Iām hesitant as Iāve been 
before with AIM. Iāve got amount a million shares with SRSP and thats suspended forever after years of nothing. Waiting for p20 on that. 
Iām hoping the news with GGP at the end of the month is excellent and it 
Iām surprised T212 forums are so quiet.
@trading212_team any chance you can make GGP instant trading

So Iāve just topped up another 15000
It was p7.70 but the deal went through at p7.80 
only Ā£15 lost from buying at that but not cool.
Also it went through before 11am so whatās going on??
Is it buying at those set times or not? This was four minutes after @anon86329651 @PeterA
So Iāve now got an avg p7.63 share instead of what should have been p6.63 without all this messing about. So Ā£300 wasted with the penny diff. Thatās quite a bit when itās only a couple thousand in.
Edit
Ok WTF just tried it with 100 and it went through in 60 seconds!
Both 
and 
Has something changed in the last day?
Edit2: So I try with 1500 shares at 11:39am and its pending 11mins and countingā¦
Edit3: 39mins waiting luckily it stayed at p7.60 in this time period.

Market orders are placed fine at the moment, but I tried to place limit order as well without success its still pending, any reasoning behind this?
Weāve been working on making the market orders instant.

thanks
Is there a reason that some go through instantly whilst others are taking 45mins atm?
Itās much better than waiting at specific times in the day but still tricky to buy dips when they last for 5mins and uncertain when your order will go through.
Well Iām happy with holding 45,000 now and back to a p7.5 average.
Roll on the end of the month! 20p a share
Got a bit carried away today hacking together a pre-trade information sheet that might help noobs with trading stocks. It tries to analysis price improvements and live quotes and form a range in which execution should take place.
It should help those people that say āthe app displayed a price of 6p but I executed at 8p Iāve been robbed!ā
Or maybe it wonāt.
I dunno. Either way Iāve had fun hacking it together. Should be available tomorrow (maybe).
Works on any LSE stockā¦ with reasonable accuracy from my testing
