@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Their overlords are telling them to shut it down. Very obviously.

Portland Trader
(@PortlandTrader) reported
@mkmfitzgerald @IBKR You're trading the entire float twice a day. What's the liquidity problem here? I can't buy stock with cash account or hold it without margin?

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?

@mkmfitzgerald @IBKR BS. They were protecting the billionaires who got caught with their crooked pants down by a bunch of redditors. Even when the little guy can finally get a win, the big financial gurus find a way to eff them over to protect the richest people in the world

@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

@IBKR watching your chairman tapdance and lie on @business just now was disgusting, I hope you all burn down just like @RobinhoodApp $AMC $GME

@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 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????

Shagwong Securities LLC
(@ShagwongS) reported
@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

(@orjola14) reported
@IBKR Since when you decided to play regulator? You did this without notice through your platform or email. Your customer service is down since yesterday. Yesterday morning option prices on amc/gme were blank for 15mins _before_ trading halted. This is why we pay commisions/fees for?

(@paulcdejean) reported
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.

(@SophistUnpaid) reported
@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.
