I've never posted here and I probably won't ever again, to be honest. However, I had a thought I wanted to put into text before I forgot it and I truly believe it to be relevant to your interests.
I'm sure many of you have seen all the different posts today about net neutrality and what a future without it would look like, but these posts are missing what should be one of our greatest concerns as individuals. Pay to play trading.
Pay to play trading is the term I am using to describe what large companies, organizations, firms, etc. will be able to do to create an unfair advantage in the market place. Large companies will be able to pay significant amounts of money to ISPs to make trades earlier, faster, and more often, thus controlling the markets more than they already do.
Trading firms are already looking for every advantage by determining which internet connections are able to transmit information a thousandth of a millisecond before other connections, but with pay to play trading it becomes that much easier for them.
I don't know if this is the right place as I know most of you are concerned with long term investments, but trust me when I say this will also have an impact on you as well.
Thanks for reading and have a good night.
