Anonymous Comment On Regulatory Notice 24-13

I understand the intention of three day trades per week was to reduce the risk and losses incurred. Over the years, it seems to have actually exposed traders to more risk. Allowing no more than three round trip trades in five business days has created a burden on traders as well as brokerage firms. Traders who wish to trade in small amounts to build capital typically do not have access to the minimum deposit required to avoid being flagged as PDT, and in many cases will place more impulsive trades.
