@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?

@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?

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Help us sue these guys. This is not right. I should have the right to buy sell whatever stock I choose on their platform. They allowed me to yesterday. Who's allowed to change the rules!

@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

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR This isn’t right. The market is FREE. So what if people buy a stock and break the hedge fund shenanigans. How can they stop purchasing? This is a big issue. The American people need support against this ****.

@IBKR This is proof the 1% have total control. When retail investors make money, they can just shut it down. Market Manipulation at its finest.

@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.

@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?

@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!

@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?
