I think IB is the biggest bubble that needs to burst

So far the only thing that I hear about IB is API. If you guys all love so much about API, why don't you guys all become programmers? Why trade? LMAO!!

Forced liquidation on positions that were making profit?? Yeah that's going to bring down your measly $2K account? LOL

No balls to pull the trigger I see. LOL
 
So did you wait too long to take a position in GME or AMC and find yourself restricted yesterday and bitter sitting it out on the sidelines or what's the deal man? You can tell us the real issue bro.

Real issue is IB sucks! I thought I was clear from the beginning. o_O Of course you didn't read my first post.
 
ET is just as good as Reddit. The question is do you have the balls to play it?? Reddit's got balls. Do ET'ers have balls?? That is the thing... @Overnight, you play futures, crude futures, something ten times risky, do you have the guts to short a little stock like IB?? :sneaky:
As far as I know Reddit was pumping a stock, not shorting it.
 
I have only good things to say about IB. Never got screwed once in over 18 years with them. Glitches? Occasionally. But it's been a good relationship so far.

For years, they have been allowed to exist with non-existent customer service, slow, error-prone, bug-ridden software, unscrupulous execution policy, unfair margin policies. Their google review score is 1.7/5. Everybody who's ever used their service had nothing positive to say and yet their shares are trading at $60.XX??!! If GME was trading at $4 because supposedly nobody wanted to go to their stores, how can a company that everybody hates can fetch a stock price of $60.XX??!!

If you want to short a stock, short IB! It's time IB gets brought down to the value that it deserves if you want to talk about bursting bubbles.

Why don't you put your money where your mouth is yourself first? You seem to talk a lot but unfortunately it's always just bitching about IB. Anything positive happened in your life recently? Why don't you go short IB in size? I will follow right after you provided proof.

TP is waiting for an offer from a large bank. I wouldn’t like to be short when the last independent brokerage gets bought.

Oh so this shorting will potentially hurt the personal wealth of TP? hmmmnnn...

Well... After seeing a few threads talking about the broker who holds my money, going bust and being a bubble...

At least redditors are long, and in my view are less harmful to me than people who hope and preach for my broker to blow up.

Well if they don't allow you to trade what good are they as a broker? That's the issue here. But anyway looks like they lifted restrictions on the short-interest stocks. https://ibkr.info/node/3763 Dunno if it's true or not.
