All,



Over the weekend, the London Stock Exchange are migrating their trading platform/price feeds to a new technology, with several differences in the data format. This change will affect all data providers and all brokers, as they will be switched to the new system.



The new system will be live as of Monday 14th February.



We have been making the necessary changes and performing comprehensive testing to make sure that the change goes smoothly and does not affect our users. However, due to the complex nature and fundamental restructuring this change is forcing onto ALL data providers/brokers, there is a possibility that some providers may experience difficulties.



We are confident that the service should be working as normal, however, should you do spot any issues from open on Monday morning, please let us know.

Ian

Cheers for info Ian.

We shall all I'm sure be bearing in ind that this will be software version 1.0.0 issued after some in-house beta testing!!! Need one say more?

No MMs on L2?

u are not alone

Morning All,

The LSE change over has caused a few problems, please accept our apologies.

Level 1 seems ok but level 2 is not.

We are working on a fix currently.

Best regards,

Geoff

We are still on this

TRADES SHOWING BUT NO MM POSITIONS.

Ducatiman. We are are aware of issues with level 2 particulary around SETS stocks. We are receiving market maker prices but not electronic order book. We have our team on this and as part of the migration have external consultants also working on it. Intraday charts also seem to be affected but level 1 seems OK.

Bull, my L2 is reporting trades but there are no mm prices/positions on L2. Will log out and back in to see if that helps, brb.

nope, no mm prices/positions on L2.

ducatiman. We can see them on the SEAQ stocks but not on SETs stocks.

We are very much on this to get it all fixed

Intraday charts are now coming back online

Can you please Help Me.
Regards
Silva

Silva,

Level 2 problems due to the LSE feed changes. Progress being made but still no order book I am afraid.

ValueMax,

Thanks, indices charts are being worked on as we speak.

Thanks,

Geoff

Getting some strange prices on L1 streaming prices.

Take AAL for example. It goes from a current (as I type) 30p down and then will flash 3p up and alternate between two prices.

Edit
Happening on other shares as well

Thanks Martini

I have to say that this is an absolute shambles, my criticism is levelled at the lse, moneyam are obviously a customer of the lse and therefore surely tests could have been run over the weekend to iron out any gliches before the market opened today. Even my broker is giving inaccurate prices. Might as well sign off for the day, at this rate it could be days before anyone can trade with confidence. Disgusting and amateurish, shame on you lse, I bet the yanks could implement these changes without chaos.

Miisleading informatiuon is not good for anyone-I have traded but with no confidence and without the insight that L 2 normally provides me.

Not worth watching today.

Ian /Geoff-how long do you think before the LSE cockup is back to normal??

Yuff - no time-scales available I am afraid.
