Executive Summary
NASD Regulation, Inc., reminds members of their obligations under the Free-Riding and Withholding Interpretation (IM-2110-1) with respect to venture capitalists and the cancellation safe harbor provisions. This information was previously provided to
I gained over $1000 on my DIS today. It will cost me $274 to protect 100 sh (about 1/4) of my position with a put option for next week. That's costly.
FINRA should advocate my right to buy & sell options on a fractional basis. At a cost of $2.74 a sh I should be able to buy a fractional put for as many shares as I can afford.

A license to sell leveraged ETFs, and specifically inverse ETF's, is a license to steal. Period.

I have traded ProFunds, which offers shorts and leverage, for about ten years. ProFunds is my favorite fund family.
I do not have an advisor or broker, and I never have or will. Common knowledge is that advisors underperform markets by the amount of their fees.
What regulators should do, if our bribed
I am extremely disappointed to hear about yet another regulation to come from this already overreaching authority. I am an individual investor and these leveraged products have played an important role in my portfolio for over a decade. I have used them to both limit my risk and to enhance returns. As an example, I wanted exposure to the S&P 500 but also wanted to hedge a portion of

investments that are right for me and my family.
Public investments should be available to all of the public,
not just the privileged. As a former Certified Financial Planner for nearly 30 years I know about market and investment risks and understand the complexity of trading leveraged investments.
