Please do not continue to underestimate retail investors. The arbitrary 25k day trading limit, among others, already causes untold damage to retail traders who now have arbitrary limitations on what they can do because they're "too poor to play" which is blatantly discriminatory and frankly I'm surprised it's legal. By further restricting the access of retail traders to
Every year, millions of seniors become victims of financial exploitation, resulting in billions of dollars in losses. That’s why FINRA worked to update Rule 4512 and implement Rule 2165 to help broker-dealer firms and their representatives protect their senior and other vulnerable adult customers. On this episode, we learn more.
Comments: 1. I agree that while allowing investors to trade Options, they need to understand the product well. This can be ensured by (a) looking at their qualifications and /or experience in Finance; (b) if (a) is not satisfactory, then look at their tranck record of trading options to see if they have made 75% or even up to 90% losses; if so, they need to undergo educational guidance before

Regulating those kind of investment is no free market. We should be able to invest in what we want, this is our money we are talking about.
