    Regulation of retail forex
    Hello,
    I am voicing my opinion against the proposed RIN 3038-AC61 tightening of leverage requirements for
    froex traders. I keep my account small and use the money I make in the FOREX market for extra
    expenses. I cannot afford to leave large sums of capital in a FOREX account because of 10-1 margin
    requirements. This will eliminate thousands of home office traders and US retail forex companies, and
    worsen the already struggling job market in the United States.
    Please leave margin requirements at 100-1 so more traders can participate in the World Currency
    markets..
    Thank you.
    Lewis Jones,
