Normal for large trades to be delayed, usually 1 hour but have seen for eg 3 on a share that were for around Β£2m each, all printed with correct date/time 3 DAYS after each placed. They all get printed at some point, even spreads/balances, often in the 1700-1800 period after close, use to be all flagged ECHO XOFF vice XLON XLON (Main) AIMX AIMX (Aim) the two flags indicating, on which market conducted and the place of publication.
The delayed buy/sell would be P LRGS (Large delayed) in the TRADE print line.
After a recent (cough) upgrade the real LSE has abbreviated and got rid of a lot of those flags, ends with just a single flag
aimx xlon or xoff , sint as applicable.
Those seen on this site with HYPHEN prefixes, in front of volume/price would be flagged CANC or AMND , trade cancelled or amended.
No hocus pocus , the market just does its thing, all the conspiracy theories and other β½βΎπβ½ππππ's down to 3rd party sites like this one GUESSING.
