@IBKR So the big traders are pulling strings to save their sorry asses. Worse, you guys are brown nosing them. Do you also prohibit them from trading when they short and spread BS news to drive the stock down????

I am logging into my @IBKR account since months (I only long on $LK there LOL). I am going to buy $GME just to show the support.

Wow, @IBKR CEO on #CNBC explaining that they halted $GME to protect themselves. Explaining it that if $GME kept going up, their partners would go bankrupt. They knew halting purchases would cause stock to go down. How is this legal?

I've been informed that @CharlesSchwab allows trading on $GME of course no marginable and apparently only via limit order. But that's still better than @IBKR who has shut down trading completely. Looks like I'll be transferring my holdings over to @CharlesSchwab next week.

@LaziestofDans @IBKR @stkbullgod those guys sailed through 2008-2009 as BSC MER WaMu blew sky high ...... no prop trading , investment banking or even underwriting and i'd add it seemed like Ameritrade was in full blown panic yesterday with that said , they need to hire more customer service

@IBKR Your Chair laughed when asked about "changing the rules". He admitted to restricting cash purchases because it wasn't affordable. Then suggested buying for good reasons not short squeeze. WTF artificially holding down price beyond supply & demand forces. You should be crushed

Peterffy of @IBKR is on @TeamCavuto, giving a reason for blocking cash buys of GME stonk. If it continues a moonshot, but IB can’t get settlement from a cointerparty, IB will owe the difference to their long customer. IB doesn’t want the risk of a small firm that can’t deliver.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Don't forget about #Stash .. they were more egregious than Robinhood. Stash wouldn't even allow you to login. At least Robinhood allowed you to sell.

@IBKR To anyone reading this thread. I think I found a new company worth shorting. It's a financial services firm that just pissed off THOUSANDS of clients just a day after shutting down due to volume. Ticker is IBKR. I'm betting this quarter's earnings will be way down.

@IBKR Your hypocritical owner Thomas Peterffy comes on Bloomberg and claims why anyone would buy GME for 225 when it is worth 70. He puts ads promoting free markets then who ******** he is to curtail free market, hypocritical bastard

@CNBCClosingBell @IBKR Integrity of the market start by asking how hedge funds was able to short over 💯 % of GME doubling down on the same shorted shares

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR If the service is free, YOU are the product. Robinhood model designed to exchange "free"executions and fractional shares in exchange for premiums on the price you pay for stock vs level RH actually executes delayed amalgamated trades - limiting operations reaks of tail covering

@5up3r_m4r10 @RickyClarkeIII @IBKR Thanks for putting this up. Interactive is self clearing, his BD is fine. For his introducing BDs can he just raise their deposit based on their exposure?Looks like he thinks the broader market is becoming unstable from this, but my BS Meter is going off

@danielsowelll @5up3r_m4r10 @IBKR My only issue coming out of today was any brokerages who limited buys in cash funded accts. The margin, option explanations all pass to varying degrees, but limiting cash funded buys is and always should be illegal unless all trading is halted
