  • Robinhood Supports SEC's Proposal to Scrap Rule 611, Sparking Market Structure Debate
    June 20, 2026, 10:11 AM EDT. Robinhood backs the SEC's proposal to eliminate Rule 611, also called the order-protection rule, which requires trading venues to respect the national best bid and offer (NBBO)-the best publicly displayed stock price. The rule aims to prevent executions at worse prices than available elsewhere. Robinhood argues the rule is outdated and adds unnecessary complexity amid a fragmented market of exchanges, private systems, and off-exchange venues. Critics like Themis Trading's Joe Saluzzi warn that removing Rule 611 could weaken protection on public quotes, allowing trades at inferior prices and undermining investor confidence. The rule affects hundreds of trading centers, and its potential removal highlights tensions between market modernization and investor safeguards.
