I had a few hundred dollars left in my buying power that I was going to use to buy some more doge and pull the same poo poo over the weekend. same here, I can't pull out either.

In the end I don't think any amount of yelling THESE ARE SCAMS is gonna work if this things stays above even $200 for a few more days. If it doesn't start dropping majorly soon the mainstream financial outlets will lose all credibility with people who still trust that garbage.

This is so fuckin dumb I want memecoins Yeah, I have money I can't do poo poo with due to the trade limits but its no enough to buy and exercise options. So my only option is just sit around or play Doge roulette over the weekend. Nope, no roulette for me. Edit: Would have made a solid 50% gains so far if I'd been able to buy at the dip like I wanted. I'm just going to let any unspend buying power rest until I can pull it back into my checking account. gently caress RH.

CuddleCryptid posted:The hope was that they would wait out the contract to the very last second hoping for a dip and then sell. If they decide to just eat the loss them they could just slowly buy out shares to cover at the elevated rate without creating any spikes. Yes this makes sense, perhaps there is some counter party agreement when you borrow the stocks that this is the penalty if you don't provide the stock, and they wanted to prevent that gamma parabola, so this might be the better of the two bad options for them. However, it seems that it might not be that smart considering the attention it has gotten, and everybody and their mother's uncle buying in. So lol, while it might not go to the moon, it might still track up, and they will have to eat the interest and the increase.

Is everything cool that was supposed to happen not going to happen or do we just have to wait till Monday/next week?

most of the shorts due today covered when the stock was manipulated below 115 yesterday. Today there was still 11B in outstanding short interest. Most of that is actually new short interest probably > $300. Nobody knows where this really stands. My feeling is if it hasn't fallen past 100 already most of the players are locked in for another week. Guess we'll see Monday morning.

human garbage bag posted:Also who is getting the interest payments? yeah, good question. can be get an expert opinion? perhaps Cumshitter knows? If I had to guess, there is probably a agreement when you borrow the shares that the borrower can not give it back for a huge interest penalty, so in that case the penalty would go to the original stock lender. in thinking about it, this might also screw up future shorts, as there is less of a pool if this keeps going. lol.
