I'd like to comment to show my approval and appreciation for this prohibition. I believe that it is extremely important for all investors to remain accountable to their trades and the changes proposed here will be extremely helpful in providing transparency for the prevention of swap trading fraudulent behavior, which could very easily be happening today with little to no consequences. Without guidelines such as these in place, it's difficult for many people, myself included, to be able to trust the financial systems currently in place enough to invest and feel that the system benefits me as a retail investor fairly compared to other parties who invest significantly larger amounts of capital.
