@HaraldHadrada2 @Smudgedann @Harps_trader It’s the T212 model - no point having a phone line if they’re not going to deal with the MMs. They will offer an instant quote but you will pay the full spread I expect.

[James @FESX_Fiddler]

@HaraldHadrada2 @Smudgedann @Harps_trader Problem is they will have lost a lot of business to T212 - people just see 'zero commission' and they think they're getting a great deal. Most people are not even day trading 5 figs on AIM ultimately. Smaller guys don't care and bigger guys will phone it in.

@HaraldHadrada2 @Smudgedann @Harps_trader It was interesting they rephrased their best execution doc recently. It seems like they are trying to wriggle out of best execution as 'best price' and more towards providing the liquidity themselves so they can offer an immediate quote instead of relying on market makers.

@Adamykuy What will IG will quote you for 50,000 shares? (interested to know how it compares to my broker now that IG are commission free)

[James @FESX_Fiddler]

@Smudgedann Brutal certainly not an understatement.

@runningprofits You’ve got some nice plants in there - that’s a very happy looking gunnera.

@EdConwaySky @AndyBurnhamGM How much are US yields up this morning?

[James @FESX_Fiddler]

@ThomasTitmouse @IGcom @MilesMJohnson there is surely a story to be had here about the 'commission free' broker model.

[James @FESX_Fiddler]

@ThomasTitmouse @IGcom So much for best execution.

What a shame, IG was a great business.

@Robin25461631 Going to be fascinating to see what the tech is like in 20 years time. Can help but think that we're on the cusp of major change.

@baroninvestment Why would we step in? I highly doubt that Iran/the Middle East wants more Western involvement. Plus Trump has little to no respect for the EU. Plus Asian countries were more directly affected and have a greater need to resolve the situation.

[James @FESX_Fiddler]

@kpak82 Love a well marinated chart!

[James @FESX_Fiddler]

@fcfinvest Bluesky is actually getting quite reasonable.

[James @FESX_Fiddler]

@TheMoneySponge Chart looks fantastic - just breaking out above the long term moving averages:

[James @FESX_Fiddler]

@A1Mhigh But interesting to note that the NASDAQ is already at is 200EMA, whereas ES, UK and EU are still well above it.

@deemers08 Apart from the fact the serveral thousand protesters were gunned down by their own government just a few weeks ago. A really peaceful place 🙄

[James @FESX_Fiddler]

BTC trading very nicely.

[James @FESX_Fiddler]

@macrocephalopod To be fair, the jacket is still looking great despite the manhandling.

[James @FESX_Fiddler]

@Aimlesstrader1 Apologies for the unsolicited opinion, but thought I'd have a look at the chart. (In hindsight) the clue for me was when price traded above, then below the opening range by pretty much equal amounts immediately after the open - a sign that the market was pretty much balanced.

@Tradingchannels Too much time at the desk!
