    Regulation of Retail Forex
    Dear Sir or Madam, I am totally opposed to the proposed regulatory changes that would see the leverage
    available for traders move to 10:1 from the current 100:1. I am a relatively new trader with 8 months of
    experience. Sure I learned some early and tough lessons but because of existing equity and margin
    requirements and stop loss orders my losses have been manageable.
    I have learned much. I also see great promise in my new found skill as a trader. A change to 10:1 leverage would
    severely limit my opportunity and would do nothing to mitigate the risk involved in any trade.
    Sincerely,
    John Albers
