Junkie, that's not actually true about not being able to trade
in your own account as an RIA. Go to BrokerCheck, SEC website
or FINRA and pull up a few ADV Parts I & II while you're
in there. There are multiple disclosures required for RIAs that
trade alongside client accounts. I'd give you a link to my ADV
parts I & II....but I think I prefer the anonymity
This reminds me of the issue I have with CFP's selling life
insurance. Until a few years ago, I thought it was against the CFP
boards rules, and improper as a fiduciary to sell commissioned
products. Turns out not so much, although I'm still against it
myself.

There's no info to pass along. Just look at any RIAs ADV Part I
and you will find a section where they are able to disclose trading
alongside client accounts.
I've had multiple state regulators tell me during the initial
review that they had never seen any advisor do the entire process
without professional support (of course, we wouldn't have had any
conversation if I got it all right the first time through, lol).
This is probably an area that is typically handled by attorneys and
specialists and most advisors haven't even seen an ADV Part I or II
(I know I never saw one when I was at ML).
