    Sirs:
    As a retail forex trader I believe that the proposed changes to the leverage factor in forex trading
    will significantly hamper my ability to successfully trade this market in the USA. If this change does
    indeed take place, I for one, will remove all US based accounts that I have and take them to another
    country which will allow me to trade with a reasonable amount of leverage, such as 100:1. In the
    event that my government determines that as a citizen of the United States I am not capable of
    making my own decisions about what constitutes risk in my investments, and attempts to impose
    further restrictions upon my freedoms by hampering my foreign accounts, then I will seriously look
    at resigning my citizenship here in favor of a country which will not impose such limitations upon
    my freedoms. I am asking the CFTC to please allow me to make my own decisions now and in the
    future.
    Thank you,
    Darwin Rory Martin, a natural born American citizen, for now!
