    @IBKR I’ll be contacting an attorney about this. I’m in a critical spot and not being able to log in and trade because of your issues is unacceptable.

    JJ (@sgdnakxnabzgav) reported

    @ProfitsTaken Trying to log in to @IBKR to take advantage but unable to Login due to Technical Issues error message. In an Age of FTX and all the shady dealings with exchanges/brokers this does not inspire confidence.

    Hutch 🏛️⚡🪙 (@hutchonthego) reported

    @AnonNgmi @IBKR cuz they have the lowest margin % rates. Then I could sell the puts using equity from my other diversified holdings (stocks, paper metals, REITs) without having cash sit there. If I get put the stock in Feb and don't have the cash, my DCA funds go to pay down loan. 1/2

    @IBKR This is not acceptable. You have given no updates for 6 hours. It's volatile as hell today and you are causing people to lose money. Again....what is the issue that has caused a 6 hour pause on trading?
