Some could suggest Schwab practiced predatory pricing with $0 trades, which adversely effected TDA's bottom line far more than Schwab's.

I wonder if you forced HTTPS (redirect HTTP -> HTTPS) could stop some bots. Or just block HTTP altogether.
Regardless, HTTPS would provide more security by default for users by always encrypting their user/pass.
