    But now google is selling your data!!!
    They are allowed to use/monetize your data for 24hrs because that's how long they say they keep your data before flushing it...
    Who knows..
    It's all smoke and mirrors....unless your VPN/Proxy...

    But even then the VPNs store your info. At least the mainstream ones like NordVPN or ExpressVPN.

    I just shorted TSLA. Today I'm trading contrarian?

    Actually, there was a reversal of pattern. It's probably going to end up being a day trade. Also it will probably end up being a bad one. lol

    Having issues with RH this morning...not the best image to wake up to! Account balance displays correctly and is not down 27%. Could be an error with TSLA & AAPL splits??

    It works well for my level of involvement, first time I've had an error with it.

    Just waiting for RH to correct it, individual stocks are up to date and definitely not down (that much)

    Probably the splits. I am showing down 46% on AAPL, but am up over 100%. My broker says it will be fixed Tuesday night.

    I'm certainly not advocating Robinhood as the greatest platform ever... but I still have and use it.
    I moved almost everything to Webull as I was able to roll over a 401k into a qualified IRA and it's nice to have everything in one place.
    Other than the one time earlier in the year when RH went down (and understandably pissed a whole bunch of people off) I haven't had an issue.
    One thing I really like is the debit card. I admittedly haven't used it much, but I really like the idea of being able to invest funds I would otherwise want to keep liquid. I could theoretically, sell some investments and almost immediately spend the money with the card. That's probably the chief reason why I've left my RH account open.

    It sounds like this morning at least, several of the big guys are having their own issues...

    I have had a handful of issues before the Big Outage, and that was the final straw for me.

    That was a quick 8% return shorting TSLA.

    I might have also picked up a bunch more NVDA call options this morning. I also might have sold 1/2 already. :cheers:
