I hate IG ever since they sided with the shorting hedge funds on Gamestop to stop the short squeeze and shaft most of their clients on this stock as they don't have many shorter's on their site. They then closed out about 1000 shares like it or not, that they suddenly didn't want to trade anymore so not much use for me now as the smaller shares are more volatile for day trading etc. Their business boomed during lockdown, but 72% of traders lose so I think a lot of people will leave them when back to the office resumes.
I think I'll just stay as I am for now but thanks for all the advice everyone.
I was the same with Barclays, they were utterly diabolical.
Open a free account with IG, use the data, but stay with your original broker at the same time perhaps?
That's convinced me Pappalazz... I won't be transferring. They make it as difficult as they can so they can hang on to your money as long as possible. I dont have any complaints with HL though it does sound like IG provides information that unfortunately HL doesn't.
Carpey..
Carpet, totally understand! My ISA was with Fidelity and took months to transfer to IG and about a hundred phone calls and emails because Fodelity are Muppets. I'm currently taking them to the financial ombudsman for costs and losses.
Reading some other reports on AML's half year figures, it was interesting to come across a comment by Hargreaves Lansdown regarding the use of Mercedes engines and future electrification. They wondered if it would deter future buyers that Mercedes provided the propulsion of some existing and future vehicles. I think looking at Bentley and Rolls Royce rather answers that question as without VW Audi and BMW I doubt if either would have survived as we know them today.
Still awaiting the DBX derivative to break cover which I am sure was originally mooted for this month. The "beast" version early next year will, I am sure, receive a lot of publicity as the Urus has had it's own way for far too long!
IG definitely sounds good but my holding is in an ISA with Hargreaves Lansdown and I don't want to have to start transferring it. Thanks for the info anyway.
No worries Carpy.
I have to log in to see all that data, so I am guessing you need to have an account.
I moved here from Barclays a couple of years ago, never looked back.
I pay £3 commission for any dealing buy or sell, maybe because that's because I make a few per month, unsure.
Real time prices and info like a trader's screen, although that's how they pull you in to trade more: Flashy lights constantly updating! ;)
There must be people using it on youtube if you fancy a peek before signing up.
Thanks C26. Do you have to open a share dealing account with IG before you can see the share deals?
News has already travelled far. I love this statement from TM "The business has stabilised and now it's about the growth story".

IG, Carpy. You can choose to view anything below the price, I always have Volume, RSI, MACD showing.
A few more good days like this when Adeem can make big sales and they will hopefully be out. Where do you see the sales going through C26? Is it a premium service or can anyone view them?
Sorry, £1.2m
You called it perfectly Carpy, another 60k sell just gone through, £11m odd..
It doesn't come as any surprise that Adeem have sold some. As the price edges higher again, they'll probably sell more. At least they should be safely out before the next set of results which will let the SP rise freely.
Is it not the way that if shares are sold then they are also bought? And if they are not where do they go, get absorbed by the company temporarily?
Another £1.2m worth sold this morning, ho hum.
Agreed Vorlich...UK were a bit low but all our dealerships were closed until April.
Personally, I'm very happy with the results. Ok, sales didn't quite reach the optimistic estimates that a few of us made, myself included. But they steadily improved and are still on target to meet the 6000 for the year are with sales expected to further increase during H2. ASP improved significantly too, as well as savings from Project Horizon. All in we have only lost £44m in H1 which is a lot less than I'm sure many of us expected after payment of interest. In the next 6 months we have everything to look forward to with the launch of 3 new cars. The ASP will be driven up massively by valkyrie and we'll probably get a surge in orders for the new DBX. Another positive too, is that we still have over £500m cash so no more talk about cash raising please :-))
Yes, very content with progress, didn't quite get the 3000 units but ahead of city expectations which was the main thing. Looks as if it was the UK market that was slightly behind the trend. Call sounded very positive and hopefully got some in the city interested in increasing their holdings.
Agreed, they didn't do beyond the target. Still I believe this will hit the mark for sure in the long run, but the numbers just didn't cut it for now, slow and steady race.
The market however looks forward not backwards
I'm ok with the results.
All in all, fairly neutral, i would say.
Company needs to turn 'we will....', into 'we have...'.
Then we will be off and running.
Needs more time. Probably a couple of years.
Nice positive results, share price response is favourable :)
