    Liquidation on low volume, high beta stocks

    I highly doubt that stops would have saved him... IBKR has "protective" algorithms that will reprice limit orders to "reasonable" levels. Even market order are capped. In such a stock this means you wont be able to get out aftee a volatility halt as they limit your buy order below current market...

    Kamala wants a 0.2% transaction tax

    While annoying i personally don't think thats very bad for us traders. 1. Afaik as a professional you can avoid it by founding a LLC (GmbH). But more important: 2. It "only" affects Derivatives, thus it will move a lot of retail speculation money from somewhat shaddy otc (KO Warrants, CFD...)...

    Kamala wants a 0.2% transaction tax

    In 2008 there was a lot of talk around an FTT both in the us and in europe. But not much happened, some european countries have an FTT (eg. france for stocks with large market cap). Others have changed their tax law or are about to change (eg. Germany). But all in all not much of all the talk...

    I have a margin account with IB. Why i cant withdraw my profits immediately ?

    My Balance available to withdraw is always a bit lower than actual liquidity. As i trade quite actively i guess this has to do with settlement, typically T+2.

    KNDI(+$8) $17.20 at 1:41 AM PST, which brokerages trade this early?

    IBKR does. but don't get fooled by KNDI and others. when looking at it in hindsight, it may look very easy. But for each runner there are also some dumpers... So you may be in for a run or the fool who bought at the top. KNDI and Kodak where extraordinary

    IB feedback

    Depends on exchange and much more on whether you add or take liquidity. Commissions are tiered, however with your small sizes you probably stay at the most expensive tier. Trading is possible from 4am to 8pm on all the main ecns. Personally i like the plattform tws, but i've been trading on...

    HTZ...Musical chairs, the music stopped!!

    I don't think so, HTZ is most likely not marginable and Options were trading so high that any short puts wont lose that much.

    DOW futures down 300 again

    With talk of a virus mutation with new outbreak in Bejing and many brokers now forcing liquidation as price moves close to limit up/down i would not be surprised if we hit limit down premarket today.

    Buying shares in size

    Take a lot of liquidity when there is a large bid/offer, often at levels x.00, x.25... However if you want even more size than available there you want to lool at algorithms. Ibkr has some, i think there even is a guaranteed vwap order, with up to 10% of avg daily volume...

    Pre market high/low levels

    Premarket starts at 4am. However many brokers allow their customers only to trade after 7,8 or 9am. I think tdameritrade and others start at 7, robinhood at 8 or 9. At 7am some moves in individual stocks occur. I dont think SPY PM high low is that interesting. Futures HL might be better to look at.
