@IBKR I couldn´t buy GME stocks. Margin is not the problem. With this restriction you are protecting the shortsell companies. High volatility is not the real reason! Do you think it´s fair what you are doing?? IB was the best broker for me, but now you have lost 100% of my confidence.

@IBKR You are complicit in manipulating the market to help the billionaire hedge fund ******** and I hope your company goes down in flames @WebullGlobal if you want an app that does not restrict your trades. Funny the "Free Market" app is Chinese. Crazytown

@JHaakona @TESLAcharts @IBKR I think the main issue is short options positions. Those are necessarily on margin.

@AlexW142 @TESLAcharts @IBKR Well, yeah, but why would their customers complain about them not giving them margin? Do robin hodlers seriously buy this stuff on margin? Are they stupid?

@TMSP85 @IBKR Class action lawsuits and a 100% move to a financial institution that doesn't do this should fix this issue?

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Because their margin lending ballooned and their funding sources warned them about liquidity concerns from potential defaults. Gap down openings would punch thru stop losses.

Wow, @IBKR just went full market manipulator and only allows close orders in GME now. **** these criminals. I hope Congress and SEC completely wreck them all.

Had @IBKR not ****** us over, $GME would have possibly been dip buy of the year. Who are we kidding though, if they still allowed buying this manipulated crash wouldn't even have happened.

@IBKR Market manipulation at its worst. You force your customers to sign a huge number of risk disclaimers before they can even trade. Just admit this is for the benefit of the short sellers and save even just a shred of your dignity.

@IBKR You get restricted to buy and forced to sell your stock so that some big cats and market makers can cover their naked short positions ! Wtf freedom are you talking about, crooks?

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Bottomline this is a clear example of our whole system is rigged to **** the little guy. There will be a French Revolution like event due to the shear magnitude of the system being fixed. The rich will be eaten if someone (billionaire) doesn’t expose and or fix it

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Citadel rules the roost and they tighten down on the BDs they do business with to limit investor liquidity. I would not do business with TD, RH, IB if I had accounts with them

@IBKR This has to be manipulation. no leverage just buying straight-up shares whats the problem for you. everyone report on mass to FCA

@IBKR This is my first tweet. I am unbelievably horrified at this. I understand when things happen for the first time, people make stupid decisions. But siding with hedge funds over retail investors? Wow. Just when the average person starts to learn how to make money work for them.

@IBKR I was willing to deal with you terrible trading interface, but now you're colluding with Wallstreet to stop me from trading. No thanks.

@chavousc @IBKR They are allowing the trading of stock, not options. The options concern is that the market makers become on the hook for bad bets by clients.

The government really want people to starve. First they shut down our businesses, eliminating our jobs, then they begrudgingly send us a measly 600 dollars and now they are conspiring with @RobinhoodApp, @TDAmeritrade and @IBKR to block us from making any money at all.
