Why does Robinhood not let me buy stocks?
Asked 5 years ago
I'm stuck! I've opened an account with Robinhood, but this brokerage platform won't let me invest in any stocks at all. How do I fix it?

Some reasons why you could be missing your buy or sell button on the stocks detailed page are;
- It’s a foreign stock that Robinhood doesn’t support
- Check Assets available on Robinhood for guidelines on eligible stocks.
- It’s an over-the-counter stock or a warrant which Robinhood doesn’t support.
If the problem persists, you may want to consider other trading platforms as well.
