    Regulation of Retail Forex
    RIN 3038-AC61
    I am writing to urge you to vote against the proposed changes to margin requirements and
    leverage ability in the retail foreign exchange markets and put the responsibility on the individual
    investors to choose their leverage position. [] This is not a predatory practice and it should be an
    option for experienced traders. [] I would support leverage and margin changes ONLY of new
    traders.
    In addition, enacting these changes will only force traders to locate offshore accounts that will
    meet their trading requirements, potentially costing the US in taxes lost.
    Thank you for listening to the concerns of your constituents.
    Best regards,
    Luke
