All,


Our suppliers have informed us that the LSE is currently having a problem, which is resulting in the slow running of level 1 and level 2, and is effecting all vendors, they are working to resolve it.

Ian

Fingers at the ready !!!!!

What what?????

back to normal now!

If you went long just before the outage you'd be in trouble now thr' no fault of your own

Thanks Iam for your hard work keeping us informed

I mean thanks Ian

thats the point i have been making for 7 hours. The prices on IG were complete bollocks. The percentage gains on the FTSE were way off any other market, they were not tracking the US futures. They have made a monkey out of people and should not be allowed to do it. Financially im net neutral but I feel sorry for any one who got sucked in

Even if I wanted to trade, I can't get any sort of quote on individual stocks.

oops a daisy - wish i could of gone long on that happening !!! :-} sell lse - they'll get battered in morning !

Streaming gone again imho

All,

the latest frin the LSE:

This is to inform you that due to on-going connectivity issues to resume a fair and stable market the Closing Auction will commence from 16:21 onwards. The Closing Auction will uncross as scheduled at 16:35 onwards (subject to a 30 second random period).

Best regards,

Geoff

Cheers.

I knew I should have stayed in bed!

Ah.

A spot of overtime for the contractors overnight!

Shorting LSE seems a gimme tomorrow, if the system works.

farcical - but makes it interesting for tomorrow !

what should have been one of the best trading opportunities in a long time was not to be , whatever the reason private investors should get a reasonable explanation from the LSE

My theory,

Is this the Russians, Al Kida, Alex Salmon, (Scottish National Party) aliens, Does this mean Armageddon?
Or is it Gordon Brown and Co having made the UK bankrupt ordered the closure of the LSE and therefor the suspension of trade whilst they secretly cash in all their shares and leave the country for a non domicile tax haven before anyone notices.
And whats the auction for, GB perhaps. The end is nigh, Doomed, we are all doomed.
Now I wonder if they have tried clearing cookies and then logging out and back in again. It usually works with MoneyAm.
Perhaps Ian and Co should give them a bell.

i guess the j boys are still on holiday without internet connection..hence the deliberate cock up

not if you traded the indices as they were working pretty much normally throughout, so i don't know why the griping from the odd poster above ....... i traded Dow CFDs with IG very satisfactorily and profitably today, the outage making no difference whatsoever

The same sort of thing used to happen during peak market conditions in 1929 you know..............The poor old carrier pidgeons used to suffer from wing muscle strain..............
