(@OdinSQL) reported
@CNBCClosingBell @IBKR @CNBC This was a multi billion dollar fraud committed against retail investors. Hedge funds don't want to payout their losing bet so they shut down trading. They figurer that the lawsuits and payouts will be less than what it would cost to cover their short positions.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR They do not want to get sued when those stocks go down 90% and the novice investors lose everything.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR So bad! My bf had a call in on AMC and could not go on Robinhood to do anything with that transaction! Not right!

@brandonmacleod @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Yes there is, but that means you have to sell all of your investments which drives prices down, wait for them to put the cash into your bank account, open another account somewhere else, wait for the money to get into that account, and then trade. How many people r gonna do that?

It is a nightmare! Customer service is 0! No reply! Almost a month can’t get any help. Live chat only can transfer from one to another! @IBKR

@IBKR I actually signed up with you a week or so ago, but you lost me as a client. Unfortunate since there's no good brokers in EU to buy options on american stocks, but I will not support this.

@IBKR **** all these establishment-centric brokers and platforms. There is enough retail money and talent out there to create a brokerage for retailers.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Interactive brokers shut down the equity portion, but the options portion is still open.

@IBKR $AMC is unlocked on other brokers. So what's your excuse for still having it closed? It's not a clearing/liquidity issue if they're able to trade.

@IBKR **** you mighty @IBKR, don’t try to justify this. Only selling, no buying = market manipulation, no more no less. We are retards but no fools.

@BrokedTV @IBKR Damn ironic, I looked at them yesterday because of their margin rates.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Mark in my opinion this time of year the market starts to go down. They figure history should repeat itself so they sell short. What they didn’t bank on was the social outpouring from Reddit who use game stop products. Joe

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Robinhood has a conflict of interest. The company that handles their trade flow, is a large player in shorting gme. Filed a sec complaint. Robinhood is in a partnership with Citadel... Citadel was getting ****** on these trades.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR They are more likely trying to protect their buyers. This was an arbitrage opportunity that hedge fund players are exiting their trades & fast. It is avoidable in the future with this little thing called AI and predictive behaviors. Data drove it up, data & AI will take it down,

@CNBCClosingBell @IBKR @CNBC It'll basically come down to this: "We care so much about the retail investor that we wanted to protect them by not allowing them to buy certain stocks. It's not our fault we happen to be short of those particular stocks and made a few bucks along the way."

@danushman @IBKR They're just protecting bleeding hedge funds... Disgusting... What about is trading if you can't trade... I'm like WTF??...

@AOC @RobinhoodApp Not only did Robinhood block retail investors from trading, @IBKR did the same thing. And moreover, Interactive Brokers has now decided that they can sell shares of GameStop from their customer's accounts.

(@nakedscreams) reported
The transparency is appalling, and long overdue for a fundamental change in the way the market is run. OK with us emptying out our accounts repeatedly on bad calls; you now, all of a sudden, feel the need to “protect” us from our stupidity? #gamestonk #wallstreetbets @IBKR
