Ref my post 1114 regarding a 6.9% fill on Spreadbet.
Received another 5.3% today. Explanation was that they were paid in 2 separate clips. One yesterday & one today.

Anyone getting lots of alerts to this thread for comments from yesterday? Very annoying... somebody stoke the ADVFN server hamsters please.

Nothing yet from Hargreaves or from Barclays. Surprising as both usually very efficient.

What did eeza say...lol...

TDW the Corporal Jones of the brokers - again.

rathair, if that's true about trades going in seconds after midday that's quite concerning, I agree. It wouldn't be insider trading unless ST was actually working for/running the companies he's tipping, of course. He rationalises the tips in the articles. It would be pretty unethical to tip companies in advance to certain people before articles are published, however, in the sense that it means the 'buy in' price is realistically never available to regular subscribers such as myself.

I always assumed it was due to trigger happy PI's following the 'Tommo Spike', but now that you mention it it does seem suspiciously fast to happen. I've never once managed to get his buy price despite being pretty fast to read the articles and make a decision.

From my experience the Investor's Chronicle are very good with customer feedback, so if you're a subscriber I encourage you to email them with your concerns and share their answer here, even if it's hogwash.

I still use his tips because I simply don't know enough about companies in the smallcap space and find his research useful (most of his tips happened to have worked for me, YMMV). But yes, the speed at which these trades go through after midday does smell a bit off.

13.36% at BestInvest.

[taylor20] 06/9/2016 19:59

13.7% at Selftrade

[rathair] 06/9/2016 19:04

Best to double check if its a tip as most tips are already bought into before the public see them.

Quindell was promoted by him right up to the very end even though he had plenty of warnings about it which he simply dismissed.

[cockerhoop] 06/9/2016 18:32

Sky,

Just rechecked my maths and still get to 12.38%.......feeling cheated!

[eeza] 06/9/2016 17:24

Still 2 tenders to go.

Nil desperandum.


Re spreadbet - I have brought it to their attention that their own rules state that SB's will be treat in the same manner as broker holdings, and that the Tender stated that excess tenders would be filled to an extra 5.3%.
They have reverted to their clearers, who were instructed to hedge at the basic 6,9%.
Waiting for reply.

[simonsaid1] 06/9/2016 17:17

Smartening up - or just desperate to exit the holding and taking anything they can. It's lost around 6% since ST's last tip (which caused a 'Tommo Spike' leading people to overpay), so plenty of PI's looking for a way out of this without any loss. *Raises hand*

[skyship] 06/9/2016 16:32

...& only 13.53% at Sippdeal.

Seems as though people are smartening up over the Tender process!

[rathair] 06/9/2016 16:20

Its all happening today thats Jil just RNS'd

[cockerhoop] 06/9/2016 16:05

12.38% at idealing

[eeza] 06/9/2016 15:49

Lol !!!

But only got 6.9% on my spreadbet.

[eeza] 06/9/2016 15:04

I got 13.99% fill at ShareCentre. Sorry Tilts.

[skyship] 06/9/2016 13:01

Wonder when the rest of we mortals will find out our fate...

[skyship] 06/9/2016 12:59

Sad that - if it was your own in-house nominees then of course you would be advising everyone to accept 100% - result is the minimum. The price of being too good a broker Tilts! :)

[tiltonboy] 06/9/2016 12:52

eeza,

6.9% plus 5.3% of 93.1...

[eeza] 06/9/2016 12:40

I thought the minimum was 6.9% (basic) + 5.3% (extra) = 12.2%, Tilts.
