Regardless of any lawsuits, RH may be in a ton of trouble as a business. They claimed to be the open, honest option for the little people. Their actions go clearly against this and may alienate them with their customers.
Dude, you need to get this picture in an 8x10 framed on your wallBought GME on 1/13 at 28.32 and used a trailing stop because I thought WSB was joking around. Well the joke’s on me. 🙁![]()
Down 45% in one day is holding up? I’m in the wrong game.GME holds up to heavy attacks from wall street. I wonder what they will try tomorrow. Internet outage? SEC mandate? I'm sure they have lots of tricks still up there sleeves.
people always file lawsuits when they lose money.There are lawsuits filed already.

Day's Range 112.25 - 482.85 and closed at 197 after they stopped people from being able to buy it. This is far from over but the longs held the line today.
That intra day range is blowing my mind.Day's Range 112.25 - 482.85 and closed at 197 after they stopped people from being able to buy it. This is far from over but the longs held the line today.

Ahhhh, I don’t see skinny’s posts.
If you bought at $482.85 I don't think this qualifies as holding the line. That is if you're not comparing to the Giants OL the first 5 games of the season.

An Update on Market Volatility - Robinhood Newsroom
This past year, we’ve seen the financial markets become a voice for the voiceless. We’ve seen a new generation ofblog.robinhood.com
“Amid this week’s extraordinary circumstances in the market, we made a tough decision today to temporarily limit buying for certain securities. As a brokerage firm, we have many financial requirements, including SEC net capital obligations and clearinghouse deposits. Some of these requirements fluctuate based on volatility in the markets and can be substantial in the current environment. These requirements exist to protect investors and the markets and we take our responsibilities to comply with them seriously, including through the measures we have taken today.
Starting tomorrow, we plan to allow limited buys of these securities. We’ll continue to monitor the situation and may make adjustments as needed. “
Oh boy.
Holy shit! Wow! Just Wow! If RH is doing this and the SEC and FINRA do not act we are in a whole heap of trouble as a country. We already get our wealth stolen by the rich and now they are blatantly doing it from individual accounts. People need to go to jail for this. Wow!
Please explain.Well, yeah, but that’s not my big takeaway from their statement.
Please explain.
Looks like RobinHood and their customers just realized the downside of buying stocks on margin.
Please explain.
Well I guess when you sue someone you can claim anything.Problem is the people reporting this didn't buy on margin...
Sounds like they had a margin call they couldn't meet. I read they are drawing down credit lines. RH could be the first one to blink.
Where did you read that? Can you provide a link?
That's very kind of RH to sell that "customer's" position (4500 shares) at the session low price. Just a coincidence I guess. Probably sold it in blocks of 100 all the way down, trying to find price discovery on a day that few people could buy. F*cking savages.

Happily not a RH user. :)I would be weary if you have crypto trades on with RH..not SIPC insured
Only if it gets shut down halfway through the 2nd half! 😁I’m hoping tonight’s bball game is just as exciting.
Re. purchasing crypto - I'm assuming PayPal is SIPC insured?Happily not a RH user. :)
It has happened before. RU vs UMass (Marcus Camby).Only if it gets shut down halfway through the 2nd half! 😁

GameStop shares jump 68% on Friday, bringing gains for the week to 400%
Friday's surge came after Robinhood said it will resume limited trading of previously restricted securities.www.cnbc.com
Whether a margin call or free riding call you still have usually two days to meet the call by depositing cash or securities.Well I guess when you sue someone you can claim anything.
My other guess is freeriding violations.
