"If casinos changed the table odds to 3 in 10, there would be an uproar and mass exodus by serious and most casual players." I'm betting that people are too lazy to care or even take a few minutes of their time to e-mail the powers to be. I hope I am wrong. And yes, there have been a lot of good changes over the last few years. For instance, making it a requirement for all stocks on the OTC/BB to become fully reporting, or changing the MM trading rules so that orders to clients have to be filled first. And the new crackdown on analysts, like I said earlier. We small guys have great collective power. But do people care enough? That's the question. It's funny, but if casinos said they were changing the odds on the table games so that you only had an 3 in 10 chance of winning, there would be a mass exodus from serious and most casual players. But that's exactly what is going on in the stock market, not only in options trading, but in most trades that people make these days, I bet. Heck what pecentage of mutual funds made money last year, when they have all the research people they do?
