Better reporting on short interest, including synthetic positions hidden in the options chain Full transperancy of the Dark Pool markets - why does more than half the daily volume come from darkpool?? where are those shares? Vastly steeper fines/prison sentences for being misleading regarding short posistions. Your punnishments in the past have merely rewarded the bad actors, they scam us for
I would like to see automatic reporting of shorts and short interest and not self-reporting. I have a three year old and if I'd ask her to self-report when she does something wrong life would be peachy. The brokers, market makers and multitude of firms, funds, offices and other institutions have shown that they are unreliable or downright fraudulent when it comes to reporting. They should
Short sale, short interest, fails to deliver, hedge funds using the same collateral for different margin accounts and loans, and all dark pools information should be made available to the public as daily reports as LIVE FEEDS.

We need better short intrest data. Real time data as it happens no more retail has to wait 2 days to find out what's going on. This puts us at a disadvantage as institutions have real time data as to what retail is doing mainly because of pfof, Bernie Madoff created pfof so that is giant red flag. We need real time data to what institutions are buying and selling if they have ours. Real time
The reporting of shorts and especially synthetic shorts have been overlooked for a very long time, because of this I absolutely believe this will benefit every single investor. These rules should be implemented and require daily reporting to the public by the firms FINRA regulates. I sincerely hope that FINRA implements and enforces these rules as the confidence in the state of todays stock
