Well I guess that's a good thing...but...from charge to sentence....2006 to 2011. What's that they say...the wheels of justice turn slowly. This was an outright violation of regulations by not being registered.....but what of the 1000's of manipulative acts of trading on the open market that affect thousands/millions of investors every day...that will unfortunately never be dealt with by a system that sees it all as "not irregular" trading?

Having said the above, I received a call from my brokeridge, after I put put in a sell in the last minute of the day, stating that I was not allowed to do that...but I've done it many times in the past. I haven't called them on it yet but I'm wondering if anyone else has come across this as something new. Now that would be a positive move if everyone were held to that...."you can buy but you can't sell". It would certainly even up the game when we've all seen so many take downs in the last seconds..... always an annoying and often dubious occurrence.
