Hi FINRA Committee Members, I don't believe it is fair that you are trying to regulate leveraged and inverse funds. I understand the risks in using them, and have used them successfully in the past. I find them to be easier trading vehicles than using options and I use them as a way to keep my portfolio hedged and to play short term swing trades during uncertain times. If others don't
when i first heard that leveraged funds were no longer allowed to be created, i was angered by this overreach. at least those in existence would be grandfathered and i could still use them. to now learn that you are contemplating restricting my ability to use such exchange traded funds is insulting. even the cooling-off period. i bet it would have prevented me from making trades during the recent
As a reminder, FINRA is introducing a new system for FINRA member firms to submit the FINRA Participation Agreement and manage TRAQS users. Beginning January 31, 2022, FINRA member firms will access the Participant Data Management System to complete these functions. The Participant Data Management entitlement was granted to all existing FINRA Participant Agreement and FINRA Order Form
SummaryFINRA seeks comment on a proposed new rule to streamline and reduce unnecessary burdens regarding existing requirements addressing the outside activities of member firms’ associated persons, including registered persons (the Proposal). The Proposal is the result of FINRA's retrospective review of FINRA's rules governing outside business activities (OBAs) and private securities
If the US market looks to be seen as a free market we need to have transparency. Dark pool trading has gone on unregulated to the point of becoming a place where institutional investors can go to hide their elicit trades; this needs to end. All authorized shares should be able to be accounted for at any given time during market hours. Fines and penalties for FTDs and naked shorting of stocks
Individual retail investors and the SEC need daily, hourly, real time, transparency into synthetic short interest, naked shorts, high-frequency, dark pool trading. The dark pool trading and blatant market manipulation creates an unfair advantage to hedge funds and market makers. Without this, the federal government is giving an unfair advantage to Wall Street, and disadvantaging Main Street!
I would love to have complete transparency in the market. Synthetic, naked shorts, all of it. Regulate the trading to make it fair. No high frequency trading algorithms that can easily manipulate the market and prevent retail investors from having a fair shot. I would really like to see all short information reported daily. Lastly, actual enforcement by the SEC of malpractice, instead of slaps on
I already commented on this but I forgot to mention the PDT requirements, we should drop that all together. You're basically saying if you don't have 25k in your account you're not allowed to play. After you confirm someone is 18 years old or above, they are responsible for their own money, if they have extra money they wanna build by day trading it, don't restrict them unless
I simply want an open, free market for trade and investment. It is not, and entities such as the SEC and FINRA allow it to be in the favor of hedgefunds and investment firms with large amounts of capital. Everyone should have to trade the same way, on the open market, under the same terms. Same time for the act of sale to transact. Shorting companies shoud be heavily regulated and absolutely have
