@IBKR what makes you allowed to manipulate markets like this? You stopped retail investment and allowed hedge funds who were shorted to a ridiculous extent, causing a huge price crash. @TheFCA these guys need investigating immediately this is market manipulation! @JohnGlenUK

@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.

@gregasmaximus @calvinfroedge @IBKR IBKR works great, good app but poor customer service. I'm shopping for another one on principle I don't think Schwab restricted any trades

Tangled Web (@Presleytal) reported
@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
-
bullbearlovechild (@bullbearlovech1) reported
@INVESTMENTSHULK He is literally saying that @IBKR and other brokers tried to crash $GME so that shorts don't go bankrupt. I would have expected them to try and deny this, not talk about it in interviews...what the hell is going on?

Retweet Capital (@capital_retweet) reported
@IBKR ********??? Why does the situation have to subside? Fuckwits

Doomscrolling into Despair (@ACoolJuiceBox) reported
@CNBCClosingBell @IBKR Wow so the underlying issue here might be risk within the derivatives clearinghouse process. Maybe some members were unable to cover these losses. If only I didn’t write a paper about this exact thing. @ClintWroteThis

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

@IBKR **** you guys. I’m switching to another broker.

brucegelin (@brucegelin) reported
@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR My question - is it legal? If a person has not violated any laws in trading, how can they be shut down? Under what authority? And were retail traders the ONLY ones that were shut down? I got questions...

Imran Kamal (@mimranmkamal) reported
@IBKR I have just asked all my friends whom I referred via IBKR not to open instead open with hargreaves lansdown. I will be going down the same route in the coming days. BAD decision IBKR

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?
