@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR in order to provide free trades, fractional share trading, they have had to make deals with traditional trading firms that may ultimately show, that even disclosed, were bad medicine for small individual investors...but who knows.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR The worst part is it says I cancelled the order and I did NOT cancel the order. I’m shutting Robinhood down completely.

@IBKR If a billionaire buys all alone that $AMC or $GME and brings the short seller mafia down to the knees or if it is be done by a community of many thousand single traders... what difference ?? NONE !! Criminal broker behaviour to ban the community trading in favour to the mafia

Anyone blocked out of trading what they want on @RobinhoodApp and @IBKR Interactive Brokers, @Fidelity Fidelity still lets you trade. They have good fills and customer service too.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR They made a poor decision that backed them into a corner, and people started capitalizing on it. When they realized they were stuck with these short positions and no way to cover, who gets punished? Everyday people by locking them out of trading to drive the price back down

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR It's called screwing the people. Down with the suits!

@IBKR Whelp, see ya. Beyond stupid. The number one thing people require from a broker is trust. Set your margin requirements and guidelines, but **** off away from certain symbols.

@IBKR still trying to grasp the consequences of what you are announcing. Changing margin rules, fine; halting new position in the stock, fine. But force liquidating option contracts? WTF. What about people who were hedging etc? You are really crossing a line and asking for lawsuits.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR (2) The size and scale which WSB is creating likely hurting the MMs due to latency issues. If Robinhood and IBKR lose these contracts, they need to actually pay to have trades executed...

@IBKR Probably an opportunity here for a new trading platform to step up. Give the customer what they want.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR If you can't Buy $gme and $amc and the others. Go Buy $SNDL same thing is happening now with this stock. People just found out about the short sellers driving the price down and is now $1.00 when it was $0.50

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Because when billionaire hedge funds use risky trade tactics to short stocks and take money from little people it’s fine... when the little people fight back and cost those billionaires money THEN it’s a problem

@IBKR How ******** is this free market? You are directly crashing a price by not allowing people to buy. This is criminal. Morally corrupt thieves. **** you all @IBKR @RobinhoodApp

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Citadel shorts stock. Price goes up. Citadel tells Robinhood to turn off the buy button but leave the sell button. Price goes down. Citadel wins.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR The question is, doesn't this expose them to a lawsuit? From the corporations, shareholders, and of course their clients. This is not technical issues, this is equivalent to cutting the hardline to the terminal because i dont want you winning.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR They think we are too stupid to band together towards a common interest.

(@SideGigTrades) reported
@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Given the amount of margin they allow people to trade with, there's significant risk for them in the current climate. I also imagine it's a cash flow issue for them to honor the transfers when trades are complete.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR It’s all CYA for them. They don’t want to be on the ones on hook for enabling or failing to react to high profile market manipulation. Plus they probably hope this will help head off new rule making and they will say look we were able to handle it properly with the existing rules

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR so they can "mitigate their risk" be not allowing buys of the stock and just sells, in turn bringing the price down and screwing anyone that is holding a long position.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR The SEC should shut down the platform. Anyone who has an account with them should make plans to close it.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR etrade, TOS, RH, WeBull, Fidelity all down today at the threat of retail gaining the upper hand...wholesale MM's have a monopoly (the number of them has dwindled over time).
