LSE ~ doddgy price reporting18 Oct 2023 23:46
What is it with the people running this BB ?, They seem to be very slack/selective as to what price they quote as the closing SP ! Sometimes they take the average between the Buy/Sell offers, even though trades have consistently gone thru closer than to the Sell; more often than not they will set their closing price with a miniscule after hours trade well below the 16.30 and they will totally ignore or delay reporting any trades above the Sell price, burying it in mid session ! Today is a new one, they used the lowest trade price for the afternoon to report as the closing price, totally ignoring later trades that were well above that. However one thing that we can count on is that they will more often than not show the lowest closing SP possible. Maybe I am being cynical but I get the distinct impression that whoever owns this site has a motive to manipulate peoples sentiment ?
