RE: I just bought another 50,000 at 9.37am. Let's see if it shows up as a buy or sell. Will be inresting.19 Aug 2025 08:46
I'm really not that bothered about the LSE thing but day in day out the class clowns (both filtered so responses irrelevant) start threads about the actual or, perceived inaccuracies of this site. Usually they are the basis of stupid and baseless conspiracy theories about market makers' activities and motives. On this thread alone these are quotes (my comments in brackets) which make me think that their authors are labouring under some sort of false impression about what this site is:
A great deal of technology ends up being TAKENOLOGY. (I've no real idea what that means to be honest)
Why in this day & age & with AI , Why they can't get a simple thing like wether it's a buy or sell correct is beyond me."
surprising they use the share price to define as a buy or sell
why they don't pull the buy/sell data field from the records of the broker transacting has baffled me. Is there some GDPR reason or the extra cost of extracting that extra field
Clearly AI generated, (clearly not given this site is all but unchanged for about a couple of decades)
sometimes it doesn’t exist so they have to make it up.
Couldn't the regulator or LSE force trading platforms to include the buy/sell field in the files (do they mean this LSE or the other LSE because this one has absolutely zero leverage to do so)
I’m hoping Ade will clarify (to say that flies in the face of overwhelming evidence would be understating matters!)
