I do like RobinHood, and I think this is a good platform that helped revolutionize the stock market and make it more approachable for citizens who are not as high brow or rolling in money. 


I moved my portfolio to RobinHood and liked being able to trade after hours and working on the margin, which I might not have tried with other platforms. 


There have been many times where I feel like RobinHood has cost me thousands of dollars, yet I am still with them. 

Poor execution prices, days where RobinHood just didn't work and I couldn't trade stock at all, and purchasing prohibition and limits with GameStop and other stocks had me hurting many days probably to the tune of over 10K.  


There are a lot of "What If's" in the stock market. Although I feel this company has wronged me multiple times, I don't feel it malignant, and do I believe they have helped others. I may or may not stay with this company in the future, but if they continue to be shoddy, they will not last.
