    Regulation of Retail Forex
    RIN 3038-AC61
    If you reduce the Retail Forex leverage to 10:1 all you will achieve is that ALL retail traders in the US will open
    their accounts in other countries.
    In the last regulation you already reduced the leverage to 100:1 which is fine. Also the Capital requirements for
    the Brokers was a good idea to protect the clients.
    An improvement would be to have the money in segregated accounts like in the UK.
    If you approve the 10:1 leverage you will shut down thousands of jobs in the US.
