What brokerages didn't lock out accounts?

TD just played games all day with "server issues ". Lots of shares that would have been bought weren't able to bought due to all the down time.

Its like they stuck their platform in slow mode. I tried to close a trade and ended up losing almost $600 bucks then I swapped for another and it cost me a few pennies on the buy which was another 5-600 bucks. By the time the lag settled and I could actually get the chart up, stock bottom dropped because robinhood announced no buying on it while I was down. Shitty deal

Indeed shitty all the way around. I still have a couple of small positions with Schwab I won't sell at the moment, but I'm reassessing my choices. I'm going to have the cash sitting in my bank to see what type of "regulation" the government puts in place after this. I'm not a day trader, but more of a dabbler swing trader. It hurts when every time there is volatility, the website slows to a crawl, goes down, or even worse, limits purchasing/selling of any stock....

I agree. Holding SNDL long now lol bag holder I be hahaha, but high hopes it can move and they open up buying again on it. Either way, massive squeeze getting geared up with all the traders Robin Hood is losing. If they pull out Monday, maybe a week delay but all that cash will hit the markets again.

I think there is a lot of pissed off traders that have pulled cash from brokerages, which further hurts their capital requirements. I hope every trader pulls their cash in the next few days and now squeezes the brokerages, in addition to the shorts......
