@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Citadel and SAC were part of the backstop for Melvin-Plotkin's losses: they can either keep throwing $$ down that black hole or shut down trading in the name... easy call

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR As a small investor who is taking the time to learn cheap lessons now, I’m a bit rattled at this and not in a bad way necessarily. I’ve learned that typically the lower you are on the totem pole the less access you have to rapid information, so I’m steering clear.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR When TSLA runs up 2000% in 9 months and Wall Street makes a fortune, no problem. When retail traders make a little they shut them down? How is that legal?

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR It’s amazing that when the big guys screw over the retail traders with the amount of manipulation they do it’s ok. But when reversed it’s now an issue? People are now locked out from buying in a supposedly free market.Ya not liquidity issues it’s manipulation

It's legit to raise margin requirements (especially for shorts) in times of high volatility. Shutting off access to markets, though (buying options!) is ******* bullshit, though. **** @IBKR

(@justo25131233) reported
@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR They have been bought out by the big banks/hedge funds. These hedge funds had a decision to make: close their short positions at a major loss or buy out robinhood and restrict purchase of these stocks and double down on their shorts. It’s clear what they chose to do

@IBKR **** you for trying to control the “free” market. Until the SEC decide to halt trading you have no authority to limit what people buy

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Caught them with their pants down on 100s of billions of dollars. They can't cover, so they rewrite the rules. Redistribution of wealth back to the 1%.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Bottom line from Mark "They set the rules and need to live but the consequences". The second the rules didn't benefit them they shut down the ability to play by the rules. I am no economist/lawyer but it seems like total BS to allow selling but not buying of a stock.

(@HHaines15) reported
@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR I'm assuming it's a margin issue. Most RH accounts are margin, and IBKR has just increased requirements to 100% for long 300 for short. My guess is they don't want to hold the risk if it goes to 0 and people just dump the accounts while owing them thousands of dollars

(@meckimac) reported
@GerberKawasaki Of course they can, they're private companies but is it the right thing to do? It's not just RobinHood. Brokerage companies for professional traders like @IBKR shut it down, too. This is very concerning IMO.

@IBKR This is Canada and the market is meant to be a FREE market. Why are you not allowing purchase of the stock GME? I thought you cared about your customer's financial freedom. Empty words.

@IBKR You should be ashamed of yourselves @IBKR freaking market manipulators. Shutting down trading only to those who want to buy while letting your HF friends close their short positions is #MarketManipulation #Criminals #InteractiveBrokers

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR ..and where the bubble will end with their own portfolios at risk. Of note: $TSLA is more overpriced than $AMC or $BB but it's a slow gain so that's perfectly fine /s

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Trading platforms are supporting HF by limiting trades to only sells, thus manipulating stock price down. This is BS.
