Various platforms are not trustworthy and are committing crimes at the cost of retail investors, while the SEC does nothing about it or acts in favor of hedge funds and banks.

11. What else would you like us to know positive or negative - about your experience with online trading and investing?
The US market is completely fraudelent . This wont change as long as committing crime doesn't get punished severely and the fines are just costs of doing business. One step to make the \"fair market\" actually fair, fines should either be at least double the amount of money entities gained by committing crime or said entities should get strikes. After 2 strikes per decade the entity and its branches shouldn't be allowed to ever participate in the market again.
