No more 25,000 account minimums or 3 day trades in 5 days.

As someone that has watched my stocks bleed out over the last hour of each trading day while others sell and I’m forced to sit on it bc I’ve ran out of trades I welcome this move.

How many people are running margin accounts with less than a $25k balance? For those that are, this seems like a how it started, how it’s going meme in the making.

Sports betting, future markets.

A lot of landmines for people to separate from their hard earned money.

I read something that only about 5% of sport bet accounts have net money going out. Gambling isn’t built on winners.

That is because if you win too much they cut you off essentially

I don’t believe that at all. The apps aren’t making money off retail winning or losing. They make money on total bets. More volume = more money for them. Hence why they throw you bones with promos every day.

The reason most retail are losing in sports betting is that the sharps are way better than retail. Their actual edge is way undervalued, but the results prove it. Retail are always net losers in this market and it’s not close. Sharps are probably cleaning up better than before due to all the extra retail dumb money flooding the market
