    Regulation of Retail Forex
    Dear Sir/Madam,
    I am a currency trader and am totally against the CFTC proposal of
    changing the leverage to 10:1. Having a small trading account I
    already have problems competing with big institution traders trying to
    take my money away from me. Changing the leverage to 10:1 will add
    further problems for traders like me where we will not be allowed to
    make any serious income for ourselves.
    The leverage has already been lowered from 400:1 to 100:1. Please
    don't lower it further, also please think of the "little guy's"
    survival. Any experienced trader will not abuse the 100:1 leverage but
    will use common sense and sound money management strategies.
    Kind Regards,
    Kairas Sethna
