Hello,  
This email is in support of the proposed Tick Size Rule. It should be obvious that the ability to trade a given asset at prices too small to naturally perceive, is inherently problematic. An investor shouldn't find that their investment is being ground down by hyper-frequent trades, which shave infinitesimally small pieces of value away! 


Any rule that works to limit abusive transactional practices will align with the interest of household investors, as it cannot be reasonably expected of an average consumer to know the minutiae of high level trading which established firms rely on.
