I don’t know the intricacies of how the spread works with free trading platforms, however I mentioned the following on ADVFN yesterday when thinking of another free trading platform for which I have been raising awareness of ENSI via Reddit.
‘If I am interpreting the bid offer trade data correctly, together with how I think a recent increase in buyers from a ‘free to trade’ platform has widened the overall spread, it looks quite a premium for ‘free trading’.
44.7p looks to be the buy price right now for a standard fee paying trade, but 46p for a ‘free trade’. On 1,000 shares that is a £13 premium on the share price. Ouch.’
