Dear Mr. Stawick:
Just a brief letter to voice my concern to reduce the leverage in retail forex customer accounts to 10:1 (identification number
RIN 3038-AC61).
I believe that all traders should have the right to choose the amount of leverage that is appropriate for his/her risk appetite,
and that this basic principle of 'choice' is being threatened by the proposed CFTC regulations.
This said, I opposed the proposed leverage regulation in retail forex accounts from 100:1 to 10:1.
Thank you very much for your kind attention to this letter.
Yours truly,
Juan Cantor
