    Regulation of retail forex
    Dear Sir,
    It was recently brought to my attention, that a proposal has been put forth regarding the retail foreign exchange
    market. It is my understanding that this proposal would aim to limit the available leverage for retail traders.
    I understand the difficult atmosphere that the CFTC is finding itself in these days. However, placing restrictions on the retail
    level traders is a personal affront. The retail traders had nothing to do with the economic crisis. This proposal therefore would
    do absolutely nothing to protect the stability of the market. If you want to more heavily regulate the large institutions, that's
    one thing, but LEAVE THE RETAIL CROWD OUT OF IT!!! I speak for myself as well as the thousands of others like me
    when I say, we (the retail traders) are all more than capable of exercising our own fiscal responsibility with our limited
    capital.
    Sincerely angry,
    Nathan Saunders
