Trading halted?

What is going on?

Iā€™m getting a trading halt message on all of my etfs including EQGB, CSH2, VWRP and VUAG

ā€œtrading in this instrument is currently haltedā€

Has something happened in the markets or is this an error?

Iā€™ve noticed the same thing, funny enough itā€™s only the stocks/ETFā€™s that Iā€™m currently invested in and that are held in my ISA. One thing that they all have in common is that they have fractional sharesā€¦.makes you wonder if HMRC have finally pulled the triggerā€¦

Iā€™m investing through an invest account and for me it seems to be all ETFs, not just the ones Iā€™m invested in.

Itā€™s not just ISA. CSH2 Iā€™m holding outside ISA is halted also.

And itā€™s only ETF it seems. Individual stocks ok inside and outside.

I left my PC for 10 minutes and came back and thought something really bad had happened and a circuit breaker had been triggered, but it just seems like a T212 issue.

@Scott, thatā€™s right, indeed. Once the halt is lifted, trading will resume as usual.

Just noticed in the last 20 mins that it suspended about 15:30 or so following a ā€˜system issueā€™ or ā€˜incidentā€™ā€¦ Market now closed anyway.

@Mcmalloch, the situation is beyond our control, so we cannot provide a timeframe.

Just checking PZC has been halted on T212 but not showing halted on Hargreaves, tho i didnā€™t place order on HL to avoid their high fees? @Bogi.H

There was a brief halt on our end due to a risk management check. The instrument is now quoting again and trading as usual. Apologies if this caused any inconvenience :pray:
