Is this normal? I don't normally see pre-market data for UK stocks.

Very slow going over the last hour. I think we're seeing some strong support above 195.5.
To be honest, I wondered if we'd see a drop to about 190 short term considering about 8m shares traded over the last 2 days between 187 and 195, and only about 800k shares traded above this range since, indicating not much profit taking yet.
But fingers crossed the people/Institutions which bought below 196, bought the stock for long positions and aren't planning on trading short term trading.
I'd really like to see a nice rally to the close now to give confidence for tomorrow's trading.

100k order just went in , pushing the price up to 569, then a small 4k unit sell just pushed it back down to 565. Need to watch the volumes going through.

Some big buy volumes pushing us up now

I've started buying again today having sold near the top price last week to buy into THG.
I think there's a very small risk of the SP dropping a little further over the course of this week, but I feel I need to build positions now in DarkTrace to avoid missing the boat. I'll be loading up more if the price does drop further in the short term, but long term, this is a huge growth business and I have complete faith in Poppy. She strikes me as extremely smart, in control and devoted to this business.

@comeonvog
100% agree. Same here.

Oh, and there's also some potential swing trading going on.
e.g. a lot of the THG buyers are DARKtrace buyers. Dark is struggling -2.4% today and looking quite nice to be honest. People may be swinging gains into other stocks like DARK to make a 5%. I did this the other week and sold a load of DARKtrace when it was up on the day to load up on THG when it had dropped a lot, and it's worked out well for me. (I think DARK still has a little further to drop, maybe to 550p this week. I think it's having a similar attack to what THG has had last week.)

Agreed. I think there's some day trading going on here. TBH I considered it myself but thought better of it.
e.g. I bought a load on friday at 188 and 189, and if I could sell that at 196, then buy it back at 193, I'd get about 3% on the first sell, then another 1% on the re-purchased volume when the price rises back to 196, as it looks like it will today. But it's a risky strategy though when a share can just continue to trickle up after you sell for that initial 3%. That's not for me today for sure.

Hi yrab, again, it feels to me more like a bit of re-tracing/profit taking, considering the 300k shares traded this morning from around 187p to 193p, a small 30k unit drop back down to this price feels quite normal.
I'm watching to see if we'll see another up-tick from here following the 200MA on the minute charts.
Cheers

@Natty, agreed. Very different patterns from last weeks high sell pressure. Something's going on (in a good way!)

Is it me or does it feel like the bot selling pressure has been turned off?
I've been sitting here for the last 2 weeks day trading THG but with a long term buy/hold view, staring at the minute charts constantly as I've got a lot of time on my hands. Now I really dare not sell with this flat trading since 9:30.
These feels much more like normal private investor trading now rather than bot trading.
I feel it's going to push.

I'd suggest it was a normal re-tracing of some of the new buyers who came in on Friday being shaken down.
I think close today about 195/196p hopefully.
There's no reason to see this low. Blackrock didn't even want to sell it this low..

Bad news, bad news, bad news.
All news is good news - it's advertising to new investors looking to buy a stock at rock bottom prices.
FOMO will set in :-)

Hi all, I'm not a holder in AWE. Just coming in as obviously we're currently near a 52 post IPO low. I've read though some comments but haven't found what I'm looking for. I've been looking at the listing announcement and noticed that the official pre-IPO investor lockup ends 14th November. I'm wondering were some investors released early from the clause? Thanks

"Admission to the standard listing segment of the Official List of the FCA and to trading on the Main Market for listed securities of the London Stock Exchange, and the commencement of unconditional dealings is expected to take place at 8.00 a.m. (London time) on 18 May 2021.

Google trends data links below for the key brands. They look ok so far this year. This can be a good indicator of sales growth, however a lot of THG revenue is driven by repeat purchase, so growth in Google search doesn't necessarily match sales growth, but I like google trends to check sentiment demand for online businesses.

Er, honestly Ryan, in every single UK dictionary there is a word spelt wrong (and it's done on purpose)
