    Regulation of Retail Forex
    To whom it may concern:
    My name is Lowon Tang ,I am a forex trader in China and I have been using US
    brokers for two years and very satisfied. Compared with other countries brokers,
    the aspects of US counterparties appealing me, which I think apply to other
    countries clients also, are:
    1, Strong and respectable regulation bodies,
    2, Sound and sophisticated financial infrastructure,
    3, US as a country have a tradtion for the protection of international investors,
    4, US based forex firms are generaly more financially solid and well-managed.
    Regarding your recently regulation proposal, I fully agree to enhance industry
    oversight, but I don"t like put any restrictions on leverage. Leverage is a very
    important tool for us seeking financial freedom as your Amercian, and lowering
    leverage dramatically like this will not only hurt our clients feeling but also
    drive us to other countries (ie. unregulated) brokers despite above advantage. This
    is not a win-win situation, it"s a lose-lose situation that you probably wouldn"t
    expected.
    Please reconsider your proposal.
    Regards,
    Lowon Tang
