1. Do you have one or more online trading or investment accounts?
Yes, I have one or more accounts that I access online, either using a computer or a mobile app but I also access the account(s) in other ways (e.g., by calling or visiting in person).
2. If your response to Question 1 is Yes, do you think you would trade or invest if you could not do so online using a computer or using a mobile app?
Yes
3. On average, how often do you access your online account?
Daily/more than once a day
4. On average, how often are trades made in your online account, whether by you or someone else?
Other.
If Other, Explain:
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 had a pre-existing account and downloaded an app or visited a website to access my account
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
7. What would you like us to know about your experience with the features of your online trading or investment platform? (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.)
Nothing like this affects the way I trade and is silly to think otherwise. I am not an 8 year old child that gets excited by changing colors. How about you focus on the real problem such as the illegal activity happening daily in the US market. I won't invest another penny unless something REAL is done.
8. If you were trading or investing prior to using an online account, how have your investing and trading behaviors changed since you started using your online account? (For example, the amount of money you have invested, your interest in learning about investing and saving for retirement, the amount of time you have spent trading, your knowledge of financial products, the number of trades you have made, the amount of money you have made in trading, your knowledge of the markets, the number of different types of financial products you have traded, or your use of margin.)
The only thing that changed is that it is less hassle and less time consuming to make trades. I'm hoping there is a question about things that matter in this survey and not this BS \"gamefication issue\" that is insulting to adults. Do you really think we over extend or make risky bets because the screen looks fun and cool? Jesus christ do you all look down on us that much that we are just silly kids aging with our shiny screens? Y
9. How much experience do you have trading or investing in the following products (None, 12 months, 1-2 years, 2-5 years, 5+ years):

10. What is your understanding, if any, of the circumstances under which trading or investing in your account can be suspended or restricted?
Had to throw that \"if any\" in there to take another jab at us? Are you really trying to help lime you are supposed to or is this all a fun game to you?
11. What else would you like us to know positive or negative - about your experience with online trading and investing?
I would like you to know that the US market is a toss of the die..company doesn't matter if there is good news bad news no news. If you invest in a company that big money wants to go up you win if you invest in a company they are against you lose. Talk about gamefication. The market is a damn game to them.
