ACT Reporting Requirements
Trade Reporting
ACT is the platform where all equity trades are reported. Participants executing a transaction must either input trade reports to ACT or browse the inputted report and either accept or reject it. Reports must be filed within 10 seconds of execution. The contra-party must accept or decline the trade within 20 minutes of execution.
Information submitted in a transaction report includes the following: (1) the symbol of the security, (2) the number of shares or bonds, (3) the price of the transaction, (4) a symbol indicating whether the transaction is a buy, sell, or cross, and if applicable, short sell, and (5) the time of execution. Additional information may be required as well, but transaction reports consistently include the five components listed above.
Both parties may submit reports. However, only one is assigned the specific reporting responsibilities for standard trades. See below.

I passed my Series 24 today with an 80% thanks to Solomon Test Prep! I found the most benefit from using the practice exams as a learning tool, reading each answer explanation as I went along, regardless of a(n) correct/incorrect response. I found that for this exam, understanding the concepts is equally as important as memorization! Good luck!

I studied for the Series 24 for two and a half months. I thank God for his grace passed on the first attempt. The exam simulator is superb, it's projection of readiness to sit for an exam is spot on. All the feedback I received on how difficult the test was proved to be very helpful. As a result I over studied and followed the recommended study plan step by step which was key. Thanks again Jeremy and team, Solomon exam prep is the best ;)

I really liked the Solomon study materials. They did a really nice job of explaining the material in plain language. I have a really long commute and the audio books came in really handy!! I would recommend the Solomon study materials!

I
passed my Series 24 with two weeks of nearly full-time study, using the
textbook, the online class, and the exam simulator. The textbook was very
readable and helpful in providing complete explanations, as well as helpful
memorization tips. The online class and pre-recorded sessions were
crucial to get through all of the material and put it in relative
context. It was helpful to be able to have questions answered instantly
and via email afterward. The online simulator questions were just like
the exam questions, and the immediate feedback function was essential for
learning from the practice quizzes and exam. I needed every minute of my
study and practice time to count, and Solomon Exam Prep made it possible.
Thank you!

Taking the Series 24 class with Karen Solomon this week helped reinforce the data that I learned, and I passed my exam! The material was thorough and the exam simulator was an excellent tool to test your knowledge. Thank you Karen!

I recently passed my Series 24 using Solomon Exam Prep! It was the hardest exam I've taken to date. I found all the practice exams with specific feedback to be the most helpful, though the audiobook was very helpful as well.
