    Dear CFTC,
    I am opposed to the change in the limitation of leverage to 10:1. As a average trader who trades his own
    money, it is difficult to come up with enough money to meet the minimum margin requirement. Having
    the margin requirement at 1,000 is just fine and it doesn't need to be changed. I believe that traders
    should be able to choose their own leverage that is appropriate for their risk level. Thank you.
