secretary
proposed new 4x ruling
Dear Mr. Secretary;
I am writing you today in regard to the proposed foreign exchange trading bill. First, though I'd like to provide
you with a little of my personal background. I am a 63 year old chiropractic physician. I returned to school when
my children were teenagers, after working part-time to provide braces, sports, and family vacations. I started a
career with an education debt over $100,000. I have a very small IRA (less than $20,000.00) account, and the
economy has all but collapsed. I have watched my income decrease by >60% due people loosing their
employment, and health insurance. They have lost their ability to afford health care, thus impacting my
income. I have been studying and trading the 4x market for the past 2 years. I use this income to supplement
the wages I have lost and to maintain my home. If the proposed bill is passed, the impact on my situation would
be disastrous.
Regulation may be necessary to protect people from dubious companies, but the proposed regulations would all
but kill the possibility for those of us who are willing to educated ourselves. I am relying on the 4x market to
keep my home and provide some income in my upcoming retirement. I request that you review the linked
article and reconsider your actions, http://www.forexpeacearmy.com/forex-forum/forex-articles/8342-
