I think its needs to be more transparency in the market get rid of dark pool if investors can't use it FTD needs to be more regulated and stricter naked shorting need to be addressed immediately when it happens and stock manipulation
I approve of these actions. Especially, naked call selling with high amounts of volume. This practice is know as synthetic shorting. Its used by funds to drive down price on higher speculative stocks. All information on this info should be accessible to all.
The naked shorting and dark pool abuse that is going on has to stop if you want to call yourself any kind of regulatory agency. It is unthinkable that you allow retail investors to be stolen from by market makers, when it is your job to protect the sanctity of the system itself. Loss of confidence of an ENTIRE GENERATION of investors will likely cripple the US economic system and it will be due
In regards to questionable trading through means such as so-called "dark pools" and concerning statistics indicating a high volume of naked shorting of synthetic stocks. I am request, on behalf of many retail stock traders, that all transactions for the AMC stock reported and verified within 24 hours.
There is clear manipulation within the Market and you guys have a legal obligation to protect everyone's interest. Naked short are against the law and you guys need to enforce the law. We truly just want to see AMC do well.
Short interest should not be self reported. Needs to be transparent and reported daily. FTD's should cause HEAVY fines. I mean, HEAVY. Maybe 50% of annual profit of a company. Naked shorts need to be investigated, openly disclosed to the public and result in heavy monetary penalties, as well as temporary ban from trading a particular security (maybe 30 or 90 days ban). High frequency trading
I am responsible for investing my money, I have enjoyed investing in leveraged securities such as FAS, URTY, JNUG, and JDST. I do not feel the securities are "TOO" risky, please allow us investors to make our own decisions.
If anything stop "Naked Shorting" and "PFOF".
Thanks.
I’m in full agreement with most of the changes you have added above. Naked shorts and FTD are reeking havoc on price discovery and there’s little to no visibility on this type of data. Without information and transparency we can’t have a truly free market.
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. While many of the policies mentioned in Regulatory Notice 21-19 address the general breadth of exploitable and ineffective
Having dark pools that trade off market it’s just for manipulation and having platforms like citidel connect that doesn’t even report to you is insane. Auditing these market makers to see how many naked shorts they hold should be a top priority.
