    Hi,
    If you want to destroy retail Forex trading -
    what else you need to introduce these new stupid laws?
    Instead of helping struggling individual Forex traders,
    you're trying to make their life harder and harder.
    Stop your intervention into rules of Forex trading!
    Regards
    Serg Roz

    Hi Serg,
    Remember a few months back "they" (the NFA) stopped you
    hedging in Forex?
    Why?
    Only they know - it certainly wasn't any advantage to us.
    Now your future
    trading
    Forex is REALLY under threat...
    Here's an excerpt...
    As many of you are aware, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission
    (CFTC) announced on January 13, 2010 that it is seekingpubfic comment on
    proposed regulations concerning retail Forex trading.
    As part of the proposed regulations, it is stated." "leverage in retail forex
    customer accounts wouM be subject to a l O-to-1 fimitation, "which means 10:1
    leverage wouM be the maximum amount allowed for all Forex traders in the U.S.
    Now I'm based in the UK so this won't directly affect me immediately. But where the US leads,
    the rest follow.
    This will mean that to trade a single standard lot of $100,000 you will need $10,000 in your
    account. Currently it can be as little as $200!
    How does this
    "help" us
    retail traders??i0-001

    These bureaucrats are supposed to be there to provide a safe environment to trade in
    not kick us out of the game!!
    Please contact the
    CFTC and let them know what you think if you ever want to be able to
    trade forex !!
    Email them here.., [email protected]
    Please don't mail me back as I don't understand why or what they hope to achieve either.
    Regards and thanks for your time
