    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR #dogecoin doesn’t look to bad now with all this going on. 🧐

  • alikhaz_is Zafar (@alikhaz_is) reported

    @MohammedNalla @michaellebowitz i did a test buy of a single $AMC an hour ago on @IBKR and it went through no issues.

  • SpacMan11 The Italian SPACchio (@SpacMan11) reported

    @TradeZer0 Dear, I’m not your customer, I would like to know if you are blocking your customer freedom to buy stocks such as “the ones with major volatility”. Thanks for consideration! @RobinhoodApp @IBKR

  • Shefu88540221 TaviT (@Shefu88540221) reported

    @LadeBackk @IBKR Welcome brother! I am using IBKR and it is not bad. For you in the US you can use the mobile app commission free if I am not mistaken - IBKR Lite. For me is only Pro - I pay commission

  • 123eb Ash Bek (@123eb) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR TD’s site is down. #tdameritrade

  • DawnBhasin D (@DawnBhasin) reported

    @LadeBackk @IBKR NO! They just shut down GME with RH. All connected. Webull?

  • vdd007 Dimitri (@vdd007) reported

    @IBKR I can not short all these names at all - not shortable!!! 💩 Why is that? To support Citron & co.?

  • 1775PHenry Christopher Sisco (@1775PHenry) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR MC does not understand trading!!! So if RH does not the liquidity then only allow traders to buy the stock not all them to short it. Stopping them from buying does nothing except allow hedgies to bail. **** hedgies and anyone making excuses for them.

  • JustHitTheBid Forrest (@JustHitTheBid) reported

    @IBKR This $GME blocked order was a stock order with more than enough margin. Now $100+ Wtf $IBKR?

  • TaylorMc89 Taylor McClenny (@TaylorMc89) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR RH won't let us trade those equities (or no buy, and restricted selling) and Webull has logged me out "unexpectedly". When I try to sign in it says "System is busy, try again later"... This is insane!

  • nicholasphan Nicholas Phan (@nicholasphan) reported

    @IBKR I'm sorry what? You're picking a side and manipulating the price DOWN if you only allow HOLD or SELL orders. Hmm and if we can't buy.. who's buying? Short holders who get to cover themselves at a lower price?

  • RLauzums Raimonds Lauzums (@RLauzums) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR If a service is free, the user is not the customer, they are the product being sold. Guess they sold the user to the highest bidder?

  • empirezhu empirezhu (@empirezhu) reported

    @IBKR **** you @IBKR blocking GME buying. If this is not collusion then what ******** is? Class action coming to you @IBKR btw. Not selling don’t give a **** if my 14k goes to $0. My conviction just got stronger

  • energy_wasted WastedEnergy (@energy_wasted) reported

    @IBKR @mr_skilling LOL... 100% margin on long stock positions???? what ********????

  • ngster1 Kevin Ng (@ngster1) reported

    @IBKR @t3live This is such bullshit. How can you shut down what customer wants to trade? This destroys capitalism!

  • dhallmu Doug Hall (@dhallmu) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR They are completely blocking them we have the $ on hand to buy and have many other more stable stocks. They caused at least 2 of our investments to crash. Really whoever made these decisions should got to jail.

  • thebigwinner_ Christian Paul (@thebigwinner_) reported from Atlanta, Georgia

    $GME isn’t traceable on @IBKR WTF!!!! 😡

  • LegacyCanadian Canadian Permaculture Legacy (@LegacyCanadian) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR TD waterhouse is down. Trading platforms all across the world are simultaneously going down all at the same time. I wonder why that could possibly be? Hmmmm maybe someone smarter than me knows. And Robinhood still allows closing of positions in GME stock. Class action lawsuit?

  • krisgunnars Kris Gunnars (@krisgunnars) reported

    @IBKR What ********!! I will be looking for a new broker for the 6M I have invested with you and stop recommending you to others.

  • bog_darius Bogdan Darius (@bog_darius) reported

    @IBKR How is this legal. This is market manipulation. You can't buy but you can sell? This drives prices down. @SEC_Enforcement

  • EvanNGilbert tenax proposit (@EvanNGilbert) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Citadel told them too. They are manipulating price to help hedge funds get out. Lawsuits will be filed, the app will be banrkrupt in 3months. It is far from over. The hive always wins

  • DawnBhasin D (@DawnBhasin) reported

    @LadeBackk @IBKR NO! They just shut down GME with RH. All connected.

  • BigMoneyAg BigMoneyAg (@BigMoneyAg) reported

    @charlesf11 @IBKR **** you @IBKR . The situation will subside when they get their shorts shoved up their ***.

  • Supertanker2020 SuperTanker (@Supertanker2020) reported

    @IBKR Screw u. First a slow app. Then a non responsive help desk. Now this.

  • aurbas2 Alex (@aurbas2) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR The stocks are going down Mark because Robinhood only gives them the option to sell these stocks! They are manipulating the market

  • empirezhu empirezhu (@empirezhu) reported

    @IBKR **** you @IBKR blocking GME buying. If this is not collusion then what ******** is? Class action coming to you @IBKR btw. Not selling don’t give a **** if my 14k goes to $0. My conviction just got stronger

  • Tanner_Leif Tanner Leif (@Tanner_Leif) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Isn’t this the same thing as market manipulation by closing down channels to trade these stocks? If one wants to cry foul by the WSB crowd, they should do the same to the brokerage firms and the hedge funds.

  • Rob_Meehan_ Rob Meehan (@Rob_Meehan_) reported

    @IBKR I guess I'm just not as smart as the folks running this trading platform. I mean, I get the margin requirement for shorting a stock, (and 300% probably wouldn't help a lot of people who shorted $GME) but can they explain the requirement for margin for a long position?

  • deionsantamaria D̸̛̛̞̻̫̪̘̱̠̭͎̀̏̽̽̍̾̊̆̀̓͘̕͜ (@deionsantamaria) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR The only billionaire I’ve seen support the uprise of the middle class 💯

  • anthonytardugno Tony (@anthonytardugno) reported

    This is a total shitshow. Why ******** we call it “Free” Market if it is rigged in order for HFs and IBs to win. **** you @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Total manipulation.
