Stop orders are a type of market order that can limit your exposure if the price of a stock you have an interest in changes beyond the price point that you set. But stop orders can introduce distinct risks of their own, especially during times of market volatility.
I should be able to be able to short stocks just like the professionals. They would not like to be restricted either! It is an unfair playing field when you have to play by different rules than other investors. It's called cheating! I should be able to not have restrictions on my IRA either and should be allowed to short stocks like other investors and now you want to take away the only

Executive Summary
As a result of enhancements to the Securities Industry Automation
Corporation's (SIAC) Large Options Positions Reporting system, NASD
is eliminating the manual reporting of Large Options
"Synthetic Short Positions: In addition, FINRA is considering requiring firms to reflect synthetic short positions in short interest reports. For example, enhanced short interest reporting could include synthetic short positions achieved through the sale of a call option and purchase of a put option (where the options have the same strike price and expiration month) or through other
Fail to deliver data should be reported more frequently preferably daily. Also short seller data should be far more transparent, require daily reporting of short positions, no longer allow covering shorts with options contracts, and the short sale reduction rule should be overhauled to not allow short selling at all once triggered.

WE NEED TRANSPARENCY! All shorts must be documented and reported immediately! Also, this idea that you can short a stock by shorting a ETF is stilly. To get an idea of what needs to change, take a look at Citadel's shorting of AMC. All that needs to stop. We need to know EXACTLY how much has been shorted and the return dates. Stop the fleecing of retail traders asap!
FINRA 21-19 is a long overdue change. It is clear that the integrity of the United States market has been strained to the edge of disaster, in large part due to systemic risk developed under the regulatory authority of FINRA's outdated short interest reporting policy. I understand FINRA is attempting to create a fairer and transparent market but without strict reporting policies in place you
