I can buy and sell during the pre-m,arklet and extended hours on all US listed shares via my IBKR broker app/account, but cannot seem to do the same for London listed stocks. I cannot even get live pre/post market prices for London stocks and the same goes for google and Yahoo Finance. Both those free platforms show pre/post market prices for US stocks but not UK stocks.
So I do wonder if the trading UK stock pre/posty market hours is limited to proper L2 brokers, as @Ama says......
That's for the share scope tip Emma, its more expensive than the Trading View account I have.......
You'd think the London Stock Exchange website would show pre/post market prices, even if delated, but they do not. Very odd.
No idea why the closing price on LSE jumped up so much at close yesterday?
It seemed odd and is a little annoying because today will show a drop when in fact we really closed at about 133p not the indicated 141p opening price.
Maybe the MMs will adjust it prior to open.....
Great post Ian. Thank you.
"So why the 7.69% spread - how does that build a market? This is more about manipulation of sentiment."
That's the indicated spread generated by the machines. The actual spread will be much tighter.......as has been pointed out 1000 times before.
Do a dummy sell and a dummy buy and you'll see for yourself.

Maddening that they couldn't even find one bit of positive news to put in the RNS so that the SP did not enter freewill again.
Most of us have been here too many times before over the last decade, so the long term holders won't be panicking, but I expect some of the new investors from the Miles McNulty brigade will be wetting their beds today.
Crazy to think how a nice bit of news in the RNS could have had us all putting champagne into the fridge for later.
We need to start another "Reasons to be cheerful" thread! :-)
Disappointing.
Why oh why do MSC keep delaying the trial?
Either they see the huge benefits in cost saving and emissions reduction, or they don’t. Clearly they do, so why on earth would they not wish to get on with it as soon as possible?
I just don’t get it. Very frustrating.
On the plus, we ought to be able to buy more shares in the low 2p range again soon. :-/
Must say, I always thought you"rang the bell" on the day you actually listed and went live.
Seems strange to do it weeks after that happened, but it should provide some excellent public awareness and hopefully an SP boost!
(I also did not know that you have to pay for the bell ringing experience!)
I suppose PW could talk about whatever he likes, and if he gets slapped wrist, so be it.
As has been said above, very interesting to see if he discusses any of the stuff that was released in the “illegal” interview.
I suspect he will have to discuss all that stuff as it’ll be a totally pointless and boring interview if he doesn’t talk about anything if interest and gives no new info. M
I’m actually a bit surprised that the director buys haven’t caused a bit of an uptick in SP as they were one thing that everyone was calling for during the recent down period.
Maybe the director buys were what caused the strange 8% boost in SP a couple of days ago. Leaked info about the buys, possibly, so already priced in once the news was RNSed.
Must say, I’m not very clued up on these senior notes, despite having followed Michael Saylor and Microstrategy who have gone down this route to raise cash.
The new ticker “ARBKL” will that trade on Nasdaq as a regular “stock” that any of us can buy? I don’t understand how that will work……would you be buying a note/contract that will pay 8.75% plus the cost of the note back in 2026? Is that 8.75% per year or in total after 5 years?
Maybe someone in the know could comment to help those of us who don’t understand who it works.
(Let’s try and have a thread hat doesn’t descend into the usual C&C car crash)
Does todays RNS mean that the offering is closed and was successful?
It suggests they raised all the cash they intended to raise.
Great news. Although I’m not sure why they didn’t ask for a lot more?

It is very difficult for banks and companies to invest directly in BTC, like MSTR has. Most companies will not wish to do it, as Apple explained last week.
A spot ETF, classed as a security, would mean all banks, companies, US financial entities could bypass all the current rigorous paperwork and impairment issues by buying the ETF rather than the asset itself.
= Massive can of worms. (Epic for BTC's price, but the exact opposite of what the SEC and FED want to happen to BTC)
