Can a broker intentionally not fill your orders?

"My orders do in fact get added to market, as I can watch them get added to the currently existing liquidity in the DOM. They just stop filling after a certain point. I would think it’s just the stock, but the fact that other accounts can still trade it normally is what’s raising the red flag. I’m still trying to register with the SEC which is a pain in the ass, but if I still have this issue afterwards idk how I would handle it. Would calling my broker do any good?"

Calling your broker would be a good move. If the stock is that liquid why would you assume the other MMs - venues wouldn't hit it. Again any material omissions. I came of the night desk a little bit ago and I asked our coverage at Virtu was this circumstance possible? He did some checking and the point he made was these orders are generally untouched by human interaction. Of course we don't know for a fact that it was Virtu.

Yes you should definitely confront your broker. If you see orders in other accounts are getting filled except this one account, then this is definitely an issue that you need to bring it up to your broker. They can't just pick and choose which accounts to execute orders and which ones they ignore. That's against their fiduciary duties and security laws. If all of the orders meet the NBBO and all requirements then they should all get filled.

In 1999 I had a friend who clipped either Montgomery or Robby out of $250,000 using the autoex. The MM let the client keep it but no orders ever again to JDSU. Your not using the long gone autoex, my guess is it’s costing the MM a shit load of ECN fees.

Select Net had some risk and limits to two minutes per 1000 if memory serves. The autoex had almost no risks, no order limits to those who knew how to exploited it bigly. Only risks were failure of data, broker, isdn or dial-up.

Apparently we both don’t know much because the “autist-retards” on Reddit figured it out. The Millennials are bashing us as “old dudes” while they buy cheap call options prone to short attacks on In Play stocks.

Today’s failed attack on Chinese EVs and concept companies reinforced their geniuses. I read someone say “The IPO AI is coming to market, if the ticker does not scream ‘Buy’ your a fool”! Its tickers and cheap OTM calls, the black box :)
