@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

@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?

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR It's the scope bro. House of cards were coming down. WallStreet has been making extreme bets (can't cover) and compound that... You'll see, #WSB broke finance. It's why the rapid crack down was necessary.

@Mindwbw @NotaBubble @IBKR Yeah, the only "safe" $GME entries are at the extremes. It's right in the middle now. My gut tells me big moves for the next 24hrs due to op ex, unless they just shut down completely. I warned about an extended halt in a previous tweet, which will screw the option holders.

@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?

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.

@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.

@WebullGlobal @IBKR @RobinhoodApp SHAME ON ALL OF YOU *******. FREE MARKET. LET US BUY. OUR LOSS IS LIMITED BY INITIAL INVESTMENT, SHORT SELLERS HAVE INFINITE LOSS POTENTIAL. WHO ARE YOU REALLY PROTECTING HERE??? **** YOU.

@IBKR AWFUL! They make up rules at random times during the day without telling you. They treat you like kids. CEO did not want you to buy bitcoin a few years ago, and does not want you to make any money.

@IBKR has been locking me out of selling a position that I bought yesterday.... I CANNOT sell to close. What the actual **** is happening. How is this not directly stealing from me. I have video of it all morning. Anyone have experience with organizing class action suits?

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Poor people making money is defecto illegal. Rich issue permits/licenses to circumvent this. This is why prostitution, gambling, or growing and selling food in your yard is illegal. Capital/collateral is a requirement used by the rich to gatekeep who can enter the upper-class.

@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.

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

@IBKR I was literally just into the application process and about to transfer 250k from trade 212 because I thought you guys were professionals. Guess you are just as corrupt as most other platforms. Shame.. Reputation takes years to build and seconds to be thrown down the drain.

@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.

@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Mark, you're in a fantastic position. You could buy $100.000.000 worth of GME, earn a buck and **** over market manipulators at the same time. They're literally the bad guys.

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