    Regulation of Retail Forex
    Dear Secretary and CFTC,
    One of the reasons I opened a Forex account, despite being very low on savings, I am
    able to beat the only other investment instruments I can afford, savings accounts and
    CDs ....
    I understand that the proposed change of 100:1 to 10:1 is designed to protect people
    like me, and perhaps the financial industry too. The proposal will take away the only
    opportunity I have to invest in a meaningful way in my future.
    I am for all other regulation and I think you guys are "the bomb" and I love you.
    I believe that the only people that will benefit from such a move is people who need
    no protection on the market.
    I am begging you to reconsider this radical Forex Leverage change, as it will destroy
    my only working investment, and the liquidity of the markets.

    P.S. Please please please please please please please please please please don't do
    not regulate the leverage rates from 100:1 to the radical low level of 10: 1!
