Brenden Gravois Comment On Regulatory Notice 21-19
T-0 settlement. Real fines or jail time for naked shorting. FTD’s need to be covered or receive at the least a 70% fine. Shut down dark pool trades, they are a huge scam against the retail traders.

Need better reporting on dark pools and collation of all shorting data on a daily basis.
Not very much to say but that this criminal activity that majority of the short sellers partake in needs to stop. The manipulate activities, the scamming to overpower the retail investors, the use of dark pool activity to manipulate the regular market is absurd. The sec, finra, and other regulators that let these criminal activities continue to go on this long is wicked. So yes I think something need to change to level this field as much as possible
Current total short interest updated no less than once per day. Short position averages as well as amounts sorted by length held. Ie: 400k shorted shares still uncovered/ current position lifespan 24 days. Total disclosure of what exactly is being pushed through dark pools. It's on par with financial terrorism, fraud, theft, and the like. Absolutely disgusting how our regulators sit back and let companies like Citadel get away with monetary murder. How in the [REDACTED] do you even allow such a conflict of interest to happen?
Retail investors deserve proper and timely disclosure of information, the amount of Information that is misreported is incredibly misleading. Please do something about this broken system, institute changes that bring positive outlook to the future of the stock market, for all participants.
Good evening, I write to explain my frustration with the current market, some market makers as well as bad players. The United States stock market is currently very manipulated and it is becoming so obvious that I feel it is endangering the US stock market. Short selling has become a big problem for a few players out there. I believe they have made a lot of money and when caught the fines have been equivalent to pennies on what they made. There has to be more transparency as well as punishment if caught doing something illegal or malicious in nature.
Appropriate reporting requirements on short sales, institutional short selling and dark pool sales reporting. Outdated reporting requirements allows for the current institutional deceitfulness in its short selling practices
We want T-0 settlement. We want transparency. We want jail time and not fines for breaking rules. We want a fair stock market.
With all due respect, your current rules are useless and are easily ignored and/or side-stepped. There is no transparency in the sector concerning shorts. Numbers are self-reported and easily manipulated, hidden, or misrepresented. Without mandated, accurate, and daily transparency of short data, the entire stock market is subject to malfeasance. The retail investor, as well as institutional investors are at a severe disadvantage without transparency concerning short positions established on a daily basis.
Enforce the rules, it’s not possible to have float greater than available shares, that is called synthetic shares. This is illegal.
