    CFTC's New Leverage Requirement
    Dear CFTC
    Getting straight to the point, setting the leverage to 1:10 would kill the source of income to some traders who
    depend on the income to support their families. If CFTC really want to safeguard the interest of retail traders,
    there are other ways to do it. Today we are living in a world of democracy where people have the rights to make
    choices. CFTC need not safeguard the interest of retail traders, most traders who blow their forex accounts would
    definitely not dabble into the forex business again. For myself, I am strongly against this move by CFTC. I cringed
    when I first heard the news of the "future" leverage.
