If the Market Price of the stocks so traded went High enough the broker went broke and the customers lost their Money. If the Market declined the customers lost their Money and the broker made a killing. The bucket been refined shop technique has considerably since the Racket was invented Tive of refinement was always to Transfer All the risk instead of Only most of the risk to. To run the Racket so that no matter what happened the customer would always lose and the broker always win. This can be done by putting Issue the customers into a Stock which is bound to fail. Since the Ontario com Mission started making Surprise audits of brokers books the Racket has become practically extinct.
