Ever since learning about the issues with fast trading I have been concerned about the protection of long term investors from short term professional intermediaries. A primary role for the SEC should be to protect the ordinary investor from their predatory practices.
Please approve IEXs application to become an exchange with a protected quotation, thus offering an alternative to those who wish to seek a fair exchange away from these unfair practices. If made available, I will request that my broker rout my orders to IEX to eliminate the possibility of having them impacted by speed-enabled trading strategies.
