Ask your bank compliance lol
Usually you need to bring your accounts in house and get approval for every trade. There's a 24 hour restriction on trading stocks new research is published on and you're absolutely forbidden to trade your own coverage names. Changes firm to firm but managed accounts in mutual funds are generally okay and doesn't have to be brought in house
