This is some of the regulation-related commentary I have seen from the threads I have reviewed:

**TL;DR: I have yet to see any regulatory issues with this _version_ of solution to the problem that others have found roadblocks in.**

[Matthew in 2020](https://forums.collective2.com/t/strategy-managers-get-ready-for-position-size-limits/14247/7): “The CME has taken the position that prices are not allowed to change _too much_ on their futures exchanges.” [Important reference](https://trade.collective2.com/collective2-cme-statement/)  
This is the reason behind C2 imposing position size limits on strategy managers. The suggestion I outline would be cooperative towards this goal.

@KarlA [in 2016](https://forums.collective2.com/t/subscriber-control-for-system-managers-charge-according-to-scaling-of-subscribers/9020/6) vaguely mentions regulation, but differentiates between a **vendor** trying to limit scaling and an **individual strategy** having limits. Perhaps this is the key, if C2 is the vendor?  
Other replies in this thread imply or refer to regulatory hurdles for **transaction/volume-based compensation** , which is the inverse of what is being suggested here. Rather, C2 already imposes its own scaling limit via paid Investor plan, but I think it would be valuable to open this control feature up to strategy managers as well. I also believe that this feature would enrich the ecosystem of strategy managers willing to contribute their systems, thus benefiting C2 as a platform innately, on top of the additional subscription fees.

I see one or two threads from @Daniel_goldshtein who is presented with the same problem, however Daniel’s approach to solving it is slightly different - wanting strategy managers to profit whenever a subscriber chooses to scale. [To which, Matthew very bluntly states, “it’s a regulatory problem.”](https://forums.collective2.com/t/why-does-strategy-leaders-dont-earn-from-scaling/14555/3)

I wish I could point to specific regulations, but I am still early in my learning and don’t even know what regulatory bodies C2 is subject to other than CME. Hopefully someone else can chime in with greater insight?
