They turned off the buy button when it was about to squeeze.

Even before that they have been accused of not buying stocks ordered by users, then buying at sell order and waiting for the price to raise to sell so they get a profit. It's been questioned a long time.

It was not just robbingdahood... all of brokers using apox clearing did is my understanding among other brokers using other clearing brokers.
