    Proposed CFTC Regulation of Retail Forex
    RIN3038-AC61
    Dear CFTC regulators and staff
    I agree with the need to impose more checks" and balances on all OTCforex brokers, so I support most
    aspects" of your latest proposed legislation, but the proposal regarding limiting leverage to 10:1 wouM
    seriously impair, not only the profitabifi~y of most retail traders in this country, but the US forex
    industry as a whole. At a time when America has lost its" competitiveness in most industries and sectors,
    which it used to dominate, I doubt it can afford to start loosing its" edge in what may be the last
    remaining sector where the country is still king: the financial services and capital markets" sector.
    Freedom of choice is what made this country great !!, I hope you'll do right by it, and keep 100:1
    leverage afive ! !
    Regards"
    Andres Angel
