I am a newcomer to LSE, which I use only for news and chat. I trade with Hargreaves Lansdown, whose per trade fee is only £5.95 if one does 20 or more a month (I do). Cheaper than LSE.
Yesterday I noticed four orders on the dealings page for Cap-XX Limited, all in the upper quantity range of normal for this share, which showed "Unknown" instead of "Buy" or "Sell". Then i saw each carried the note "Delayed notification of buy/sell". Is this a feature a trader can pay for as an add-on to mask their strategies? Or is it something altogether more innocent? From recent trading patterns of Cap-XX, I am pretty sure that are all Sells, but I would like to know about this feature anyway. Thanks for reading.
