@IBKR WTF are you doing restricting me from long trading with my own money???? How have you been given the right to take this away from me as a customer????

(@DanielWiener_) reported
@IBKR Any of the commentators here understand how margin works ? they are protecting themself and their customers not anyone else, the money brokers lend you is cash other customers hold and if it all blows up the broker will go down with its customers. It's the prudent thing to do...

(@IdiotVoltron) reported
@IBKR I'm closing out my account with you even though I don't own options in any of those names. Openly showing what we've all known, but didn't want to think about in your ability to gate keep and manipulate at will is bad for business.

@IBKR You guys deserve the worst. For the first time in decades young people are making money and you guys decide to forbid them from trading. You have showed your true colours. Crypto is the way and **** YOU

@insomnia4quads Can confirm. @IBKR If you are certain about your customer base sophistication w.r.t @RobinhoodApp , then you shouldn't join in this mania. While I understand you want to mitigate risk, this is straight up comical.

@IBKR Another one bent the knee....if retail lose “is the market baby” if retail make some actual gains “volatility bad, institutional goes brrrr”

@IBKR @bear_fuker You are literally manipulating the market for the benefit of the rich, we are comfortable buying and selling at these unstable conditions. Open the platform!

Oh, and now Interactive Brokers @IBKR is doing the same exact damn thing as RH. The game is rigged kids. You can't win. Only the suits can win. It's time for a new set of rules.

@IBKR @goodetrades Utterly shameful, what a crock of Sh*t! I'd actually been thinking of switching over to @IBKR but no F-ing way. Almost exactly one year ago you calmly sat back while millions lost millions but now you shut it down because a few are actually making money. $AMC $GME #scammers

@IBKR a short squeeze situation is a problem because hedge funds lose a bet that they're counterparty to? aren't you supposed to be a broker supporting the retail users?

@IBKR @DeItaone When casinos see that you know how to beat the odds at a table game they shut the table down and say they are “doing maintenance”. The house always wins.

Mr. Is That A Lot?
(@bobbyjoejimjack) reported
@glennchanWordpr @RobinhoodApp I bet its more their own self interest. @IBKR was weird yesterday. Early premarket I could short or long GME. Once trading hours began I couldn't get an order to go through, but options works. Had to call in, and wait an hour to close a position. They said it was volume issue....

@IBKR should just hire the @RobinhoodApp design and UI team out from under them. The usability of their platform has been my only complaint.

@IBKR Never using your brokerage ever. What gives you the right to determine what catalyst is ok for trading? Volatility was never a problem when wall street was making money off of it. Get woke go broke losers.
