Yea but I was watching and it sailed right past my limit. Then I canceled that and placed a market order which was just ignored. I was just trying to score on a wave and their system screwed me out of a nice gain. It finally executed the market order but I was pissed! I've never had a market order not post within a few seconds and the same goes for a limit or trailing stop. They've always been within cents of my price. I'm pretty sure they were pulling some Robinhood crap without disclosing it.
I don't think there is a single brokerage that hasn't used delays by day traders to manipulate the market in one way or another since the late 90's when it was a game changer with the internet. I know some are calling out Robinhood and others, but the market is a treacherous business to be in if your not a registered trader. Day trading isn't what it used to be.

I'm behind the live ticker, most are. I am not in anyway saying this is how it works, there are many who run multi screens and execute trades immediately.

I am a rookie, no doubt about it. But I think this movement is to expose how corrupt the market makers, hedgies, and the big game players truly are. I was told this is to show actual manipulation of a stock and to see the volume go up daily, but yet the share price goes down is proof that I need to see being a "millennial".
Rich dad poor dad tonight us a lot. This is David vs. Goliath.
Good vs. evil and we are tired of big companies eating the little guys and I believe this is payback for once .

On the radio this morning they were saying the Chinese pumped it up and the dumped it taking huge profits.
probably bought a ton of calls before pumping then sold when IV soared. I swear whales did this to GMC on the last big pump...it fell back to mid $40's in February (they load up on calls/Leaps) Price soars to $180s in 2 days lol, they each buy another beach house as a result.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if they havn't been playing retail since that point.
