5. If you access your account online, did you have the account first, and only began to access it electronically later? Or did you open the account with the idea that you would access it electronically immediately?
I downloaded an app or visited a website first, and then opened up an account with the company
6. My goals for trading or investing in my online account are (check all that apply):
Save and grow my money for medium- to long-term goals

(Examples of features are: social networking tools games, streaks, or contests with prizes points, badges, and leaderboards notifications celebrations for trading visual cues, like changing colors ideas presented at order placement or other curated lists or features subscription and membership tiers or chatbots.)
Fidelity is great. They dont use psychological tricks to get me to trade more like Robinhood.

10. What is your understanding, if any, of the circumstances under which trading or investing in your account can be suspended or restricted?
Breaking day trader rules with an account under $25k which is honestly just a barrier to keep poor people from daytrading. You can also be restricted on a margin account if you fail to post enough margin. I wish the SEC would go after Hedge funds that are ridiculously over-levered and making insane bets trying to destroy American companies all so they can make the profit while hurting thousands if not millions of people.
11. What else would you like us to know positive or negative - about your experience with online trading and investing?
I used to be innocent and naive to the stock market. I used to think big institutions and government regulators cared about the small investor. Instead they try to cheat them out of everything they have, manipulate the market and psychologically attack them to force them out of positions or ignoring hedge funds forcing good companies into the ground through illegal tactics. The SEC willfully ignores any sort of corruption and illegal trading and tactics that are encountered daily on the stock market. How about getting rid of dark pools? Maybe like the one JPM uses to trade their own shares back and forth thousands of times to artificially boost the price. Where is the SEC? Oh wait they dont care, theyre hunting down Joe Blow who accidentally day-traded four times in one week with under $25k. What about the fact that citadel can pre-trade orders they receive, BECAUSE THEYRE A HEDGE FUND AND MARKET MAKER. WTF IS THAT SEC? BLATANT CONFLICT OF INTEREST. Interesting how GME, AMC, CLOV, BB, and a bunch of other stocks all chart the exact same every day?? If people arent arrested and the markets arent cleaned up, it will be obvious we are in a rigged market. Do your job and arrest these idiots.
