    @IBKR I joined IB because it was a professional brokerage, despite the warning that customers service was below average. Today they place account holders at the same amateur level as RH traders.I believed @IBKR was better. Today they proved me wrong.

    @tpsojda @IBKR @miakhalifa I guess Lebanese girls are just winning all around so I support that 👊🏼

  • AbrahamAbeAA Abe (@AbrahamAbeAA) reported

    @IBKR If it is regulatory issue then how come webull is allowing?

  • Rob_S_Montesano Robert S. Montesano (@Rob_S_Montesano) reported

    @IBKR @mcuban If @IBKR has 9 billion in capital, what exactly is the motivation to restrict trading other than to manipulate prices to levels they need them to be at? Prices go where the market takes them -up or down - apparently some are more equal than others.

  • ClementeTequila Clemente Tequila (@ClementeTequila) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Hard to believe you are posting on this.... This whole thing is about manipulation of the markets by the rich and powerful. You really shouldn’t speak on it, Mark, for obvious reasons. Already told Leon to **** off today...I like you Man, but please back away from this one.

  • Pasternak94 Jamie (@Pasternak94) reported

    @Robert__Botkin @IBKR @mcuban They did have collateral. The problem was setting aside 50% or even 100% collateral when GME went up 200% in 30min is unprecedented. IBKR cannot afford for its clients to go bankrupt and not have margin to back up their trades. Hence the restrictions.

  • francislymond Frank Crawford (@francislymond) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Dumb take. Brokers are on the hook for their clients margin losses. That’s the first problem. Second problem is SEC undoubtedly is threatening these firms with Enforcement cases if they allow “manipulative trading” on their platforms

  • mjmiglio Michael (@mjmiglio) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Either way they should be shut down by the FTC.

  • JamesTaylorHaub Taylor (@JamesTaylorHaub) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Tell me anything but "we did it to protect you from volatility". That's not your damn job, that's on me if I want to blow my money. BUT DO NOT INSULT MY INTELLIGENCE BY TELLING ME YOU STOPPED TRADING TO PROTECT ME!!!

  • Kisiel1717 Mike Kisiel (@Kisiel1717) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR It’s total crap. Many people lost ridiculous amounts of money because of Robinhoods actions. I hope that company shuts down. #Greed #manipulation

  • 3dgamecraft Games in Space (@3dgamecraft) reported

    @IBKR Done with Interactive Brokers. You are part of the problem.

  • scottgrogn scottgrogn (@scottgrogn) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR They are exposed because they/their(dealer)made a market and need to be able to cover it. So they have to purchase the shares at crazy high prices. Could leave them holding the bag. So they shut down. Calls lose value. Price drops. They cover cheaper.

  • trentkelp JEFFERY (@trentkelp) reported

    @IBKR your only wanting to protect the hedge funds! you let them front run your customer base and now you let them rig the game when they are loosing! SHAME ON YOU!

  • komple_x KompleX (@komple_x) reported

    @IBKR Ummmm. **** you.

  • Robert__Botkin Robert Botkin (@Robert__Botkin) reported

    @IBKR @mcuban Shouldn’t you have collateral for these margin calls with institutional clients on the short options. The issue is that the short sellers were over leveraged and now you want to protect the “important clients”
