    Robinhood killed 24 hour trading. Dip is apparently being bought now that premarket is open. Very sketchy tho.

        The other brokers didn’t need to turn off the buy button because they didn’t extent free credit to anyone with a pulse

        It’s the largest 24 hour brokerage in the US. There was too much sell volume, that their execution venue had to stop it which is a pretty big deal.

          Largest by individual accounts, maybe. No way were enough robinhood users watching Japan’s market in the dead ass of the middle of the night to sell off all those billions worth of stocks to make such a dive. Those hits were taken due to institutional sellers.
