    Against the 10:1 leverage rule in forex spot trading
    Dear Sirs,
    You have already made new rule of 100:1 leverage in forex spot trading, now you are thinking of
    passing the rule of 10:1 leverage. We appreciate your effort of sanitizing the financial market and
    penalizing the malpractices of some dishonest brokers in the industry, this provides a better protection of
    the traders investors. But the consequence of the new 10:1 leverage rule will be disaster for us small
    traders who don't have a huge amount of money to trade, and also traders will start to move their funds
    to out of country where there isn't this kind of rules. Not only US forex market will lose jobs, US traders
    will take unnecessary risks by trading with unreliable offshore brokerage companies.
    We implore you to reconsider this new rule, not passing it, in order to protect US market, US forex
    industry, US labors and US traders. Thank you.
    Respectfully.
    Forex trader
