So the results were better than expected and the price fell, but this could just be delaying the inevitable:

Many people bought in at 210 or at least the 200s and this has been the day they've been holding out for. They've been well rewarded in return and sold at a healthy profit today, but that counteracted all those people looking to buy as a result of the strong financials. Now those sellers have hopefully gone, it means anyone else who wishes to buy will need to pry the shares off those of us who aren't so keen to sell.

I had a similar situation on a smaller scale with NEX. After a heavy fall they announced a strong financial update out of the blue last week and the price rose because the update was unexpected, however the next day it fell about 3% as people took their profits from the previous rise. The day after it rose even more than it did on the first day. That second day was just delaying it.

I really feel the positive impact of this update is just delayed, this is a company that's growing in a climate where most things are declining. I'm not saying this to ramp and it's partially in hope, but I bought more today at 385 as I'm convinced there's still a lot of value in this company yet and immediate gains to be had as ii's try to buy back in

It seems really odd that people were reviewing the lined up orders just before the open this morning and there were people prepared to pay 450 for shares, they must have been thrilled to get them at a discount on yesterday's closing price

Oh dear

I sold NEX at 150 earlier after great gains yesterday to buy some more here ready for tomorrow, paid 385, but it hasn't moved from that. I really need some good news tomorrow now because NEX has moved up today meaning I missed out there. Come on Boohoo, I showed faith in you now it's your turn to deliver...

Just thinking about your original point Mr008. What is to say the party who took the bet doesn't have millions more invested and in fact they would benefit of the share price rises even more than if it doesn't. It seems like a win/win for them then and it therefore wouldn't give them an incentive to drive down the stock price

Thank you Richard

Are the RNS notices today counting towards the 5 we were expecting before the end of September?

Do we still feel this is being manipulated to drop or is it that people are getting fed up of waiting?

I know it's a theory, but a couple of days ago when no-one could buy, but the price was dropping at that point it was clearly a manipulation. Today seems less clear.

Thank you. It sounds like trading 212 is the issue then

Thank you. I lets me place the order, but just sits there. I've not tried the software you're mentioning, but guess that it shows you the available quantities?

trading212 told me to try smaller amounts, I've reduced to as small as 500 shares a d even that is just being held

Thank you. I'm on trading 212 and it's just stuck waiting to be processed. I queried with them and they said their is limited liquidity

I'm struggling again today and I know this was a problem yesterday too

Thank you. I can see you mentioned MM's?

It doesn't make sense that we couldn't buy, yet the price dropped in that time. Surely the market price is dictated by supply and demand?

After those massive buys on Friday, this is one of the worst performing stocks. Seems odd that someone would make such big buys only to then lose a small fortune in a day. What is happening now, is no different that what made the rest of the market fall on Friday. Either those people who made the big buys are fools or they know something we don't and it was a calculated risk.

This is amazing, I've been riding this share down convinced the turn is going to happen. I've never been so excited for a Monday morning on a Friday night before...

I bought, partially on the back of this news and it actually went down to finish the day. Typical, but I do feel this should continue to rise because of the online business, whilst the rest of the market is taking a Covid hit again. People won't just forget Christmas, they'll be doing more shopping online than ever before.

Thank you. Guess I should have waited that little bit longer.

Only half a penny I've missed out on for what will hopefully be an afternoon rise following the BoE announcements.

But that took the price down?
