    Dear
    David Stawick, Secretary Commodity,
    Maximum Leverage under Current Regulations
    USD/CHF
    100:1 leverage (one percent)
    1 lot (100,000)
    Margin requirement: $1,000
    Maximum Leverage under Proposed CFTC Changes
    USD/CHF
    10:1 leverage (10 percent)
    1 lot (100,000)
    Margin requirement: $10,000
    By implementing above mentioned 'new' leverage the CFTC is actually encouraging/allowing only the
    rich to become richer and the poor & middle class to become
    poorer or stay where they are.Not everyone have that much of capital to start forex trading.
    More and more people are becoming j obless and homeless...at the same time CFTC is trying to stop the
    alternative source of income.
    Please allow everyone to tap legally into the USD 3 trillion and enjoy abundance of wealth.
    Regards,
    Malaysia.
