CEA s.4c(a)(5)(C) (spoofing)
Bans bidding or offering with the intent to cancel before execution, which is how the Act defines spoofing. 19 records cite it, filed 2017 to 2022.
Official text: 7 U.S.C. 6c (LII)
Many CFTC releases name the spoofing prohibition without a section number. Those are matched on that wording, not on a numbered citation.

What this does not show
These are statutes cited in the record's document where it charges, finds or alleges a violation, not necessarily proven ones. Dismissed and pending matters count as alleged. A release that names no section is not matched, so counts understate use of this provision. The plain-language meaning is a summary, not legal advice.
