This is rich--every too-big-to-fail bank on Wall Street executes high-frequency trading, including fake bids and offers to mislead market participants.

What about the bigger hedge funds--or the proprietary trading operations of the big banks themselves? Or are their armies of attorneys too cozy with the regulators?
