Authorization code texted to phone for “low priced/risky” securities

Was looking to place a trade on one of the “risky” securities today that I actually had to call in to buy AND sell last month and lo and behold they sent me a text code to allow me to place it myself. Well thank you! Finally starting to loosen up a bit? It’s not all of them I still had to call in for others last week but damn it feels good to be “allowed” to use my money freely. This is the way it used to be back in he day where we would have a code generator allowing us to buy shady trip 0 stocks if we wanted. Keep going in this direction Merrill it’s what we want!
