  • jedi_with_redi jediwithredi (@jedi_with_redi) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Cmon dude... you know whats happening. They are only taking closing options, but who is allowed to buy those options? Who do you think? Its a fix. It was always a fix.

  • itsdimauro Dimauro (@itsdimauro) reported

    @SEC_Enforcement How do you plan to keep brokerages like @RobinhoodApp @IBKR accountable? They'll blame their actions today on something equivalent to "technical glitch".

  • OldManTom_ Old Man Tom (@OldManTom_) reported

    @IBKR You and the rest of the brokers that are manipulating this price should be shut down. **** the lot of you. I hope this costs you a fortune with customers leaving the platform.

  • pnelssssss Pnelssssss (@pnelssssss) reported

    @IBKR **** you. Moving my money when the dust settles.

  • BottleJack Eric Allen (@BottleJack) reported

    @IBKR You out. To bad so sad.

  • mikeinmarlton MikeInMarlton 🗯 (@mikeinmarlton) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR It’s because Wall Street is a lie propped up on complications that do not really exist, but is so hard to understand that common folk should just accept when the market shuts down because of their involvement.

  • AlexeyBelorusov Alexey Belorusov (@AlexeyBelorusov) reported

    @IBKR Shame on IBKR. There were problems executing the $GME orders yesterday from 9:30 to 12:00 NY. I will be moving my business elsewhere.

  • dima_nomad Dima (@dima_nomad) reported

    @SilbergleitJr @jasonssensation @IBKR WebBroker is down anyways, can’t really do anything

  • FinSkirt FinSkirt (@FinSkirt) reported

    @JSeyff @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Will be quite interesting to see if their valuation resets a bit (lower) when they IPO or if they just kick the IPO can down the road and hope people forget about this...

  • TotoFusionX Toto To The Moon 🚀 (@TotoFusionX) reported

    @YahooFinance @ewolffmann @IBKR too.... That's manipulating the market and pushing $GME $AMC to crash

  • jjirsa Jeff Jirsa (@jjirsa) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR They're watching their user base buy a $20 stock for $300 on margin and know that they won't be able to cover the inevitable margin call on crash, but they're too lazy to just set margin limits?

  • svenvarkel sʌǝu ᴧɐɹʞǝʃ 🤘 🇪🇪🤘 (@svenvarkel) reported

    @SeloSlav Same at @IBKR - they don't let you buy for whatever corrupt reason they have. ****!

  • schelldave Shell (@schelldave) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR This bull&hit I lost so much money cause the locked out stocks , I never sellling my shares, you got my options if go down but shares for life

  • Scoopy_Du $ N $ O $ I $ R $ (@Scoopy_Du) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR MARK PLEASE HELP US - WE HAVE NO VOICE AGAINST THEM

  • SophistUnpaid Fermi's Pair of Socks (@SophistUnpaid) reported

    @IBKR #IBKR So yesterday I wasn't able to trade because your system was down for several hours (costing me thousands of dollars), and now today you are dictating which stocks I can buy? I thought IBKR was a grown up brokerage. I guess I need to keep shopping. #GME

  • sjfagan91 Steven Fagan (@sjfagan91) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR They really trying to pull out all the stops, suspending trading, buying, options, getting discord server shut down. All brokerages barely working at open, dumping the prices after hours to hit stop losses to scoop up cheap stock and scare people. DONT SHORT 140% of a stock.

  • nsanalytic El Charto (@nsanalytic) reported

    @LadeBackk @IBKR Webull is down so often lately

  • DkTanic ThaiTanicDK (@DkTanic) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR DO NOT SELL! Robinhood has blocked the buying of more shares. If you try to sell you will get ****** because who are you going to sell it to if nobody can buy it? They are trying to make you flood the market with sales offers and bring the price down. Dont fall for it!

  • andy_asiegel72 Trickle Up Economics (@andy_asiegel72) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Its about not being sued after those stocks crash. "You failed to protect me from myself!" Youve got young kids (including your own) trading this stuff. They make compelling plaintiffs

  • MeanseasonGames MeanseasonGaming (@MeanseasonGames) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR 2008 financial collapse? You should have considered the risks! Student loan debt? You should have considered the risks! Credit card debt? You should have considered the risks! Hedge fund makes a risky bet & might go under? It's not their fault, shut everything down!

  • perettijuan Juan Peretti (@perettijuan) reported

    @IBKR hey, I'm not receiving the verification SMS when trying to login and I don't have a way to access my account. Please, I need your help ASAP.

  • AsherDeVuyst Asher De Vuyst (@AsherDeVuyst) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Simplifies: The issue is Citadel. There is a conflict of interest. Citadel is a top purchaser(customer) of RH order flow data. Citadel is alao on the losing side of the GME short. They are flexing and RH is caught in the middle.

  • EEEFamily5 Bozzy (@EEEFamily5) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR They should be making $$$ on the volume; probably doing it because they see their customers starting to take too many risks and don't want to risk bad PR/reputational risk should too many of them blow up.

  • RussellFilipski theRussell2000 (@RussellFilipski) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Robinhood is a terrible platform. Execution issues and client mismanagement predates this recent market melodrama.

  • CassiusCuvee Cassius Cuvée (@CassiusCuvee) reported

    Retail buyers beating insiders at their OWN GAME so the suits literally shut down our platforms. Wow. I'm not even involved in these squeezes but this is outrageous!!! @RobinhoodApp @IBKR

  • SophistUnpaid Fermi's Pair of Socks (@SophistUnpaid) reported

    @IBKR I will be closing my account as soon as possible. I'm an accredited investor with a large portfolio with IBKR. I'm being treated like a child. It's MY decision what stocks to buy, not yours. This is on top of yesterday's outage that cost me thousands of dollars. #IBKR @IBKR

  • Lock1515 Landon Lockhart (@Lock1515) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Mark, We need your help here. The little guys need your help. This has to be illegal what robinhood is doing.

  • LJ14589122 ABCD (@LJ14589122) reported

    @IBKR How much are the Hedge Funds paying you off? Can't wait for the inquiry- you're going down!

  • chris_greenwald skywayCG (@chris_greenwald) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Talk about market manipulation! Crooked as ****.
