    Dear Secretary David Stawick, Although I agree with some of the provisions of the
    Proposed Regulations
    Regarding Retail FOREX Transactions
    and I understand why and whom this is aimed at decreasing the margin
    to 10:1 will do more harm than good. As an active trader I depend on this market and what it offers to
    supplement my income as a teacher. Being able to trade on a margin of 100:1 is huge for me as well as
    many of my peers. I was able to put myself in a position to get in this market because of margin. As a
    teacher, I consider myself middle/low income. If I needed 1 Ok to get in this market with a 10:1 vs.
    1000k at 100:1 I would never have been able too. IfI had 10k evidently I would probably no need to
    supplement my income.
    Please consider the ramifications of this proposal and how many people it would hurt financially
    including a teacher like me.
    Sincerely,
    Kim Yancey
