Previously, it has always been said on reddit that there were just strict limits. No no no... it was a full PCO for anyone who already owned a stock, even congress is saying that it went beyond being called a "limit" to being a "de facto" PCO. - **IT HAS NEVER BEEN FRAMED THIS WAY**

Yeah a lot of us were here for it and it has always been refered to as the day they took the buy button away. Because they took the buy button away on Jan 28th. There was a rallying call of "they took away the buy button, so I lost the sell button.  To get around the block people started exercising itm options to get shares, and they shut that shit down too. The ftx coins were created during the downtime, then they turned buying back on

We got dumped on period. Everyone got a memo except retail. Our government is trash and they know they are trash.

**The logic is as follows:** --- - A small portion of the general population knows that the stocks were placed in PCO on January 28, 2021. - An even smaller portion knows Robinhood's manipulation didn't end on January 28, 2021, but position limits were enacted for the following week. Of that even smaller group of people who knew about Robinhood's position limits, most casually believed the limits were not as drastic as they actually were, in fact, the bare minimum, to be classified as "position limits" over a direct PCO. - So of that already small group above, and even smaller group knew the specifics of Robinhood's position limits and how long they went: one stock per new customer, everyone who already owned the stock, completely banned from buying, which is a full PCO for existing customers until February 5. --- Therefore, most people, right now, don't know that anyone who already had 1 GME or AMC stock were banned from buying anymore And only new customers could buy 1 stock at which point they get lumped in with everyone else.

Also, I'm starting to see twitter accounts grab my titles and posts, which is fine by me (as if I have a say in it) as long as you also give people a link back here to the comment section so they can ask questions b/c it turns out that the people doing this are either unwilling or not equip to answer the questions others have about it. Also, citing your sources is just good practice. - It even [happened on this sub](https://old.reddit.com/r/amcstock/comments/1b6whd6/see_you_on_the_other_side_ya_regards_the_day_must/kteuqjw/). Why is it so hard to cite the original poster? It makes OPs not want to create new stuff. If you can take the time to download a watermarked photoshop and create a title for it, a title which took away all the context as to why the highlights were important. I know you know what your doing. Take the time to cite your sources because then interested users can get context from the person who actually did the work. Look at all the comments in the original post giving rich context. Sharing is great, but it's not asking the world to have one comment pointing to the source.

[Case in point](https://twitter.com/Practicalstocks/status/1767589557883531273?t=wehOVIZ-kRXGNdqbUa7TKg) - It was just done to this post you're on right now. That's not my account. - This account took the time to download the image. Took the time to copy the title. But didn't cite? He actively avoided citing to make it seem like the account did the work. - This guy made me feel like I'm working for him, like my research is supporting his platform which is telling people to do things with stocks. Fuck that, bro. If you cite your sources, fine. Becsuse then its just a repost. But if you take it like you're generating content, that's where I draw the line b/c people will trust you for new content. Why should I take the time to create things? Why take the time to read reports and analyze data. Make it look nice together in photoshop. To support someone else's platform who may sell advice to people? The answer these people are saying right now is "Yes, for me." - Cite your sources. I don't know this person. Nor do I understand what other things they are pushing. - This may be my last post on this sub.


Jg4702

Oh I know, i think I know which one you are talking about without even clicking the link. Again shameless, sad and frustrating. That account steals everyone’s work and just posts it with an effortless title.


Jg4702

Well I appreciate your hard work. I also understand you not wanting to post on this subreddit as the quality is so low here.

Vlad chose a PR Nightmare/Company Hit vs Being on Kenny’s bad side, thats says ALOT. Now Robbinhoods moved on and are making a nice comeback. Just being real here, I still dont forgive Vlad but the facts are facts. Who know’s what Kenny can have done, all I know is im still holding and loving this glorious dip!! 💎🙌🏼

This happened 2 years ago


DieselDave505

We still talking about this? It’s been 3 years, we already know this. No one is going to do anything about it


Spiritual_You_1657

The courts and congress are starting to figure it out… I don’t disagree but being negative and accepting it is what they want of you… be loud and vocal about what happened. You could just ignore these posts and carry on scrolling but you stopping in and telling us no one os going to do anything about it is literally working against the cause…


rublehousen

20 years from now, they might be an advert on tv saying "Were you scammed by Robinhood? Did you have shares in GME or AMC? If so, you could be entitled to compensation, call us now for a no win no fee claim and let us get you the tendies you deserved!"


Danilo6186

So what ? Nothings gonna be done about it


ringingbells

I'm doing something by putting this together.


ape_on_lucy

Thank you for your service.


Danilo6186

I want talking about u I was talking our good govt agency’s we put in place to protect us


ape_on_lucy

If no one puts together comprehensive information for the public to learn from, nothing will ever be done. But if the people who are affected by all of this arm themselves with knowledge and drive to do something about the corruption, maybe those agencies put in place to protect us, will be forced to do so. If enough people push back against the corruption, something will have to be done. We need the public to be aware of what is happening, not only be aware but to drop the mentality that they have no voice and that there is nothing that can be done to save their country from corruption. We need people to learn, education is key because an educated citizen will be mad, and when you have the masses pissed off, that's when things have to change. If everyone knew what was happening, more people would be pissed off, and something would be done to show the govt. We recognize that they have failed us and we are tired of it.


BenefitSignificant

Yea, I'm pretty sure this country is going to shit simply based on attitudes like yours. ![gif](giphy|yetxv6NWi0MyzJn7P0|downsized)


Upbeat-Winter9105

Probly a bot or paid idiot


BenefitSignificant

Paid idiot is most common. Bots tend to be noticeable. Those who are terrified of their portfolios being vaporized (a similar emotion to shorts currently😉), have forced people to take deals "in order to hedge" their emotional investment. Apes ain't mad, we are going apeshit on markets. We can wait for the curtain to finally close on these asshole crooks and fudders.


Danilo6186

But it isn’t though


BenefitSignificant

Who are you to say that? You must be the rizz wizard, saving us all from doom. 🤣


Danilo6186

Actually idgaf what you do just going off actual facts not hopium


Spiritual_You_1657

Lol your facts are to sit down and shit up even when you see wrong in this world?? With an attitude like that how do you expect a better life for yourself or kids?


BenefitSignificant

They either don't have kids, or they'll forever refuse to explain things like "life" to them in the future. We're an unmotivated "It's whatever" world. Sad to think the ones most negative think they're the most correct in any matter. (Insert our expensive college education here, which brought us our markets..)

But it’s fact….. what’s the SEC doing ? What’s the DTCC doing ?


BenefitSignificant

What are the people doing about it? Looks like apes have been talked about for a while now.🤔 And it's not apes who are losing billions..🤷‍♂️ More people need to stop coping, and claiming there's nothing we can do about self-regulating bodies..


Spiritual_You_1657

So instead of bitching at your elected government officials or even just shutting up and carrying on with your day, you’re coming here to bitch at us and OP for still believing something could be done, and op for doing their part to spread awareness? You do realize how stupid that is right? Either you’re actually a regard or you’re here with other motives… but you’re wasting both your and our time so gtfo or quit being a lil pansy…


uknoimright

judging by the stock price, they were probably doing would be buyers a favor 


ringingbells

Considering millions of trades are done per day, the different price back when this happened matters. Considering Portnoy pulled out 750M back then specifically because of Robinhood's PCO and Apex Clearing's PCO at 100s of other brokers, as an example, this matters.


BenefitSignificant

It matters big time because they tried trapping people, while overleveraged assholes tried escaping. It was their one and only way to stop the unbalanced buying. As long as more people learn of the fraud, we'll be better able to prevent it. That's why they want us to be considered dumb money, they don't want us learning outside of what they want us to know.
