I have a fairly rough outline of how I want to structure my paper. I am opposed to the practice of high-frequency trading. I am thinking of doing a white paper for the SEC (regulatory commission of securities) showing them the negative aspects of the practice and why they should regulate it. I will definitely be using charts within the paper and will be explaining the charts and referring back to them. I feel that this is the most effective way to increase my ethos.

My only concern would be how I would address the counter argument and state why it is not valid, without ruining my ethos.
