Unauthorized
Trading
 
 
Engaging in Unauthorized Trading:


Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, a broker cannot buy or sell a security unless you give him your authorization and consent to do so before the trade is executed. If a broker effects a trade for you without your advance consent, he has engaged in unauthorized trading.

Unauthorized trading constitutes a breach of the broker’s fiduciary duty, a breach of contract, and in many instances, a violation of securities laws. The unauthorized trades can be voided and resulting losses can be recovered from your broker.
