  • DavidIlizarov David A. Ilizarov (@DavidIlizarov) reported

  • 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

  • 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

  • ngster1 Kevin Ng (@ngster1) reported

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

  • DawnBhasin D (@DawnBhasin) reported

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

  • 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

  • Supertanker2020 SuperTanker (@Supertanker2020) reported

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

  • Plourffy Plurfy (@Plourffy) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR help us daddy Cuban. **** these wallstreet ******** for blatant and illegal manipulation

  • E__A_S_M E_A_S_M (@E__A_S_M) reported

    @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

  • TheFestyBesty cALIpfARRIs (@TheFestyBesty) reported

    @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

  • Sten_Thore Thore Sten (@Sten_Thore) reported

    @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

  • 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

  • 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?

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

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

  • 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.

  • Ungods2 Mack Bros Pictures (@Ungods2) reported

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

  • BigMoneyAg BigMoneyAg (@BigMoneyAg) reported

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • energy_wasted WastedEnergy (@energy_wasted) reported

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

  • EdwardTrotsky Soup Sandwich (@EdwardTrotsky) reported

    @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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • sannokcha RT (@sannokcha) reported

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

  • 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 💯

  • Carmen_Cook Carmen_Cook (@Carmen_Cook) reported

    @RobinHoodNYC @IBKR So sorry! I'll fix asap!

  • JustHitTheBid Forrest (@JustHitTheBid) reported

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