RE: £5m Uncrossing Trade?20 Oct 2021 08:42
Ignore the red or blue or buy vs sell
LSE here marks any trades as a buy or sell based on current bid and ask so estimates things
The UT is just the result of the price set at start & end of day, and occasionally intraday
So all it’s saying is
19-Oct-21 16:35:02 2,540.00 178,909 Sell* 5m UT
2,450.00 was the closing price after the 16:30:00 to 16:35.00 bid
Google UT uncrossing trades as there is more there but the buy/sell tag used here isn’t relevant - all that matters is the price set … watch it on open - on L2 you’ll see buy and sell orders fill the order book 07:55:00 to 07:59:59 and in that period random bid/ask will be used to set UT opening price & all MO Market orders to … LSE will tag the UT based on the bid ask range
Net is don’t worry about it as it’s just setting the SP
