FIDELITY FAGS, HOW ARE WE GOING TO SET SELL LIMITS TO $1500???

fidelity only lets you set limit orders up to 50% the last market price, so we can't set sell orders right now for$1000 and need to monitor the price manually to try and sell if it spikes.

Fidelity didn't block trades because IT'S THE #1 SHAREHOLDER IN GME

MEANING IT HAS THE LARGEST POOL OF SHARES FOR YOU TO BUY FROM

So if ALL those Fidelity shares are controlled by retail investors as a collective, then retail investors will control a significant pool of the shares and place a significant premium on the stock, which would make the short squeeze EVEN MORE pronounced

Look up who the largest shareholders of GME are.
Fidelity wants us to pump.

He probably transferred money, spent it, then canceled the transfer.
Or he bought like 1000 options on something and let it execute without being able to pay.

ya man , i would say fidelity is one of the more liberal ones. they were doing same day transferring funds since before robinhood was even a thing. Try doing same day transfer at some shithole like merrill lynch or vanguard

Trips checked and thanks for the info Anon
I just withdrew my remaining deposit and getting as much wired into an fidelity individual trade account tomorrow
Ready to watch the paper-hands fold Friday-Monday when they sell on the gamma squeeze, strapping in to ride the tendie rocket that follows

*withdrew from Robinhood.

They blocked the buys and there's nothing to say they aren't so desperate they won't try to block sells when the short squeeze happens

Guys if what that poster on reddit said is true and someone's limit order executed for 2380 dollars earlier we HAVE to find a way to put limit orders higher than 50% above last price, we could be missing out on the best gains in the chaos of this unprecedented moment

I'm wondering the same thing. The only thing I can think of is maybe if you call and place the limit sell that way? Just an idea, don't know if it would work

Has anyone tried their trader pro? Once I eventually sell GME I’ll actually be able to full time day trade. I already have a brokerage and 401k with them.
