I provided an example showing that your assertion is wrong. They do have the enforcement power to arrest people for the things I mention.



You gave an example, I gave you 10% of my trading floor. You can say what you want about rules and regulations, but if people don't PRACTICALLY enforce them, the rules are irrelevant. The SEC just needs a poster child every now and then. I'm sure you looked and saw how many arrests there have actually been. I'm curious, how many people doing it would make you believe that arrest is statistically insignificant? Regardless of an example, there are also large players clearly manipulating the markets on the various exchanges, unhindered by regulations applies to both.
