front running in stocks...not much information here

Mr. Wienerstein (LOL!!!!!!!!!!:D ),

I'm pointing out the fact that the dumb arse can't google a simple question, and emailed the SEC. Lol!!!!!!! I bet they stopped looking at porn for a few minutes, and laughed saying, "what a dumb arse to email us!" Lol!!!!!!!!!:D :D :D

Quote from TGpop:

there isn't much information around the internet distinguishing between legal and illegal front running.

front running is illegal, but when? surely if we buy just before the SPY hits its 200 day moving average , where a lot of big money may enter, that is illegal?

i have emailed the SEC on friday but havent got a reply, brokers i've asked won't talk as they don;t want to be held responsible.

they say front running, jumping in before big orders is illegal , always, then surely placing a limit order in front of a visible block trade on level 2 is illegal?

if i have a formula which large traders enter stocks in with, and front run that, is that illegal?
is it illegal to wait until after the block trade has happened, then trade with it, even though it has a tendency to reverse market psychology/direction?

can't you just say 'ass' instead of 'arse'? or are they not the same thing? i wanted to avoid googling that
 
im not so sure, i spoke with thinkorswim chat service and they got a couple of compliance officers on, they said its always illegal to front run, but they didn't want to comment on this particular situation, i contacted the SEC and they've told me to get a legal adviser

i don't want to do anything illegal

i've got yes and no answers and need real hard facts
