Proposed Leverage Regulation
Good morning,
I am a retail forex trader and changing the leverage available would eliminate someone like me
from the market. On a typical trade, right now I am able to trade and have enough initial margin.
Should you choose to change the rule, I will be knocked completely out of the market and be
unable to trade. Doesn't seem right that only the richer retail customers should have access to this
market. I am fully aware of the risk I am taking and have made money over the past two years in
this market and I consider myself to be a mediocre trader. Please don't take this market away from
people like me.
Thanks in advance,
Hendrik
