I’m watching VWRL and wonder how the brief price surges occur and how to handle them.
Here’s and example from this morning
I am curious too, I have sometimes seen this. However, my graph for VWRL this morning is not showing this now.
I see this too now and then. When I compare the candle sticks with for example TradingView, it doesn’t show those spike overthere.
Hmm. Interesting - however I have just checked myself and it is the same in the 1 minute view. Looks to me like an issue with the charting tool, or perhaps the correct vizualisation of the abrupt opening fall. Maybe the T212 staff will enlighten us.
[PS - I might just try a different browser. I’m using FF 73.0.1]

@lakelander Some cases are due to our current data feed provider. We may get an ask price from a rather illiquid exchange. Nonetheless, rest assured that these prices are not tradeable because the order is always routed to the most liquid exchanges to meet NBBO.
However, looking at IITU & VWRL specifically, I found that these are legitime ask prices on the LSE order book. If you want to secure a specific price, it’d be best to use limit orders.
P.S. We’re switching providers soon so this won’t be happening in a few weeks.

Could these fluxuations cause a position to close or are they just bugs that we can ignore?
