yes and lets be honest none of the big companies ever manipulate the market to their own advantage...
oh hang on of course they f**king do.
Sorry but for me this guy was a bit dodgy and played it a bit smart
the only reason he is being pursued is because he made the big boys look stupid
shocking witch hunt imho
although obviously HMRC should be interested in where all the companies money has gone.Comment

I do sometimes change my mind for legitimate reasons when trading..
"Spoofing .. The tactic was outlawed in the 2010 Dodd-Frank regulation, but, as with other forms of fraud, it's hard to prove the trader's intent – in this case, the intent to cancel the order. Prosecutors must prove the trader didn't change his or her mind for legitimate reasons after placing the trade."Comment

If this isn't legitimate it's hard to think some logical reason up, especially when this is systematic. You won't be prosecuted because you cancelled one order.
You can't just say "it was legitimate m'lud" he wants to hear your reasoning. But if you're spoofing there probably won't be one. I mean if he can think up a good story and back it up with a bit of evidence then yes he gets off.I'm alright JackComment

On the one hand he is an idiot who deserves to go to the States. On the other hand the States misuse extradition treaties. I want both sides to lose!Comment
