    Dear Sir/Madam,
    PS.
    In addittion this regulation will create a windfall for European and Asian brokers at the expense of American forex
    businesses. They need not even pay a dime to get your business. Since you stop traders from locking trading positions in
    August 2009, business have been diverted. Now your Non Farm Payroll announcement benefits others at your expense.
    Please make your regulation strategic too. I like to see your country do well that's why I spent time and effort writing to
    you.Of course I don't understand the complexity of your problems ..... Have faith in your often used formula in the mist of this
    financial crisis. You will come out stonger. I have the option of going elsewhere to open an account, do American have that?
    Your universities dominate the world top 50 universities ......eduction, it is so powerful and effective.
