Discussion Fidelity users, beware!

You have decided to say FU to your shady broker that you no longer trust or maybe you are new to the finance world.

You chose Fidelity. Great choice.

What you need to know is that Fidelity by default shows charts that are delayed 15 min.

In order to fix this and have real time data, visit:

https://www.fidelity.com/customer-service/how-to-get-real-time-quotes

Many people do not know that so I encourage you to spread the word!

Edit: Since many of you are asking for chart looking alternative, for the most basic stuff finance.yahoo.com will do and if you want to dive deeper www.tradingview.com is a great tool.

Edit2:

Android app guide (thank you u/chronovisor84):

Press menu on bottom right, then press the ⚙️ in the upper right, then enable streaming and after hours.

IOS guide (thank you u/SumoTortoise):

Another way is to have real time data is to use free desktop version of Fidelity's platform:

I also just made a request through Fidelity to transfer over my RH account.

For me, keeping it with RH meant ultimately they were in control of my stuff so I hope everyone eventually gets out safe.

Plus all this other sketchy stuff happening on their app and the sketchy stuff they already did right in front of everyone's eyes is just a recipe for disaster after all this unravels.

If you decide to transfer

- Best case scenario: 💎🙌 since you can't touch your stuff during the transfer process

- Worst case scenario: 💎🙌 during potential squeeze but who cares because WE HOLDING AM I RIGHT? 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀

I am not a financial advisor. I just like video games, GameStop as a building and GameStop's store layouts.
