Regulation of Retail Forex
RIN 3038-AC61
I am an experienced FOREX retail trader and I oppose lowering the margin requirement from 100:1 to 10:1.
Rather, why not impose a restriction that all new accounts are at a 10:1 margin and may be increased (up to
a maximum of 100:1) upon written request from account holder and approval from brokerage.
