I am writing to express my concern regarding the proposed rule change (SR-OCC-2024-001), which I believe could have a significant negative impact on retail traders and investors. The proposed changes could lead to an increase in market manipulation, as it would make it easier for large institutional investors to manipulate the market, potentially at the expense of retail investors. This would create an unfair playing field and put retail investors at a disadvantage. 


Imagine if the opposite would be true, how would institutions feel?
