Dear Sir/Madam 

I am an individual investor. PFOF Brokers and Wholesalers do not represent my interests in anyway shape or form. 


I own my shares through DRS, and I feel sorry for those who do not own their shares, but are using robinhood, citadel, schwab or any of the big brokers or banks. 


I am also disappointed by the use of dark pools for routing individual investors, this should be stopped but we regularly see 60%+, being sent through dark pools to stop price movement. 


Thank you for your attention to this matter. 


Best regards, 


Jeff Trotman
