    Regulation of Retail Forex
    Dear Secretary,
    Ref: R1N 3038-AC61
    Curbing the leverage limits from 100:1 to 10:1 would dampen the interest of retail inestor's interest in
    forex transactions. Decreasing the leverage to reatil investors would not reduce the probelm of risk. The
    participating mediataries should play a proactive role in educating the risk potential involved in the
    trasactions. The mediataries coomercialisation in sharing the research related information with retail
    customers is one of the cause for maxmising the risk of retail investors. Inestors acting without
    informaion is the main causes for loss in forex transactions. Unexpected changes in the trend is the
    prime cause for losses, reduction in leverage would increase the potential for losses. The move towards
    reduction of leverage would add more problems to the existing problems instead of reducing, would
    reduce inestor's interest in forex market.
    Hoping that the leerage levels would not be reduced and sharing of informaion by intermediaries would
    be increased.
    regards
    Vamshi
