- AndrewBissell 6y agoYeah the only way I can imagine that you might have been able to get profits out of the regulated markets without getting caught would be to put on a short position a few weeks in advance and then send out a bunch of fake scary geopolitical items from the verified news accounts like Bloomberg's. And even doing it this way, if that's the only activity in your account the SEC still might find you.
