I suggest you read the SEC complaint - two brokerage firms closed his accounts because of price manipulation. The brokerage firms reported Deitsch for Manipulative trading practices.
Read the following:
"VI. DEITSCH MANIPULATED THE MARKET FOR NUTRA PHARMA STOCK"
Items 163 - 207
"185. Approximately one week later, on June 23, 2015, Broker A sent Deitsch an email describing manipulative trading practices:
We want you to know the relevant rules about trading the securities you hold in your account, especially a practice known as manipulative trading….
Manipulative trading practices involve the purchase, sale, or other
transactions in any security for the purpose of:
- Creating or inducing a false, misleading, or artificial appearance of activity in the security.
- Unduly or improperly influencing the market price of the security.
- Setting a price that does not reflect the true state of the market in the
security....
Manipulative trading practices constitute a serious violation of exchange trading rules.
186. One month after that, on July 23, 2015, Broker A closed Deitsch's brokerage account and sent him a letter to inform him of that decision:
“We are writing to inform you we have made the decision to terminate our business relationship with you….
[Broker A] will not change this
decision. Please do not attempt to open a new [Broker A] account in the future.”
Deitsch will be banned by the SEC!
