The best idea would be to open few accounts with different SB companies and compare prices and executions. You can open account for as little as £100. Try the biggest FSA regulated...

At least that’s my impression (I’ve never used any other broker apart from SBs and may be wrong about it). Maybe they try to help their clients and let them stay in trades, or call them and ask for...

Charts vs. DOM manipulations
I’ve heard about algos and hft. Not only that, but I can see some bizarre moves that can be explained only by 'non human' trading styles imo.
