    Regulation of Retail Forex
    Hi.
    I'm that little guy who started trading a few years ago and who is now making a decent living out
    of it. I pay income taxes as well.
    There are only one way you could get me out if this business and this is passing this 10:1 leverage
    rule. I think it would kill this entire industry
    and once again, leave the good stuff to the big guys...I assume there's a bunch of income taxes
    coming from retail forex traders and I'm sure you cannot afford to lose it.
    Retail forex also creates jobs...which I assume you cannot afford to lose either.
    I live in Canada so for my part, I'll just move my account elsewhere...like everybody else...it won't
    solve the problem (Even if I don't see an problems), it will just help brokers in other country
    to take a bigger chunk of this market thus keeping the taxes, jobs and benefits for themselves and
    leaving the USA in the hole once more.
    I love your country because it represents freedom...I now have doubts.
    WE traders have not much to lose in this regulation...we'll move offshore but you regulators...have
    much more to lose. 100:1 was fine...even brilliant...but 10:1 is way too tight.
    Thank you for reading me and all the orders who are taking time to let you know our concerns
