Summary
In support of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s re-proposal to amend Rule 15b9-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,1 FINRA is issuing this Notice to re-open the comment period for Regulatory Notice 15-13.

It's good you are trying to get them to be more transparent, but what's going to stop them from doing all this illegal activity still? You need larger penalties and fines and somebody who will enforce the rules in a timely manner, otherwise this ruling will do nothing. Please add harsher penalties and fines and somebody who will enforce them in a timely manner.
For a market to be free and fair all information on a tradeable asset must be disclosed. These updated rules protect all parties but particularly retail investors like myself who do not have access to the same data set as large firms. I support these rule changes, a more transparent market would benefit current investors and protect the confidence of future investors in the US stock market.
I would like to see better enforcement of the short sale rule (SSR). There have been days where the SSR was triggered on AMC but then the next day I’ve seen multiple red candles following red candles and that goes to show that the SSR rule is not in fact being enforced because you can only short on upticks (green candles) and not continue shorting on downticks.

FIRST is a prototype taxonomy-based rulebook search tool designed by FINRA to make the FINRA rulebook more accessible when searching for relevant information or developing automated compliance functions. FIRST is enabled by a regulatory taxonomy, or a hierarchical classification of key business and regulatory terms, applied, or “tagged,” to a series of key FINRA rules.
OTC Threshold data is published daily by FINRA to identify OTC equity securities with fails to deliver that are required to be closed out pursuant to Rule 203(b)(3) of Regulation SHO or FINRA Rule 4320.
