    Forex Trading
    Dear Secretary,
    I email frequently and stay involved. I am strongly apposed to any changes to forex trading
    rules
    concerning leverage. People lose money trading forex not because of
    leverage
    but due to
    making losing trades, just like stocks, options, or commodities etc. When proper money
    management is used
    and when stop loses are used, a person can trade successfully. This will only effect the
    individual trader that trades small
    amounts of there hard earned money. I'm an adult and responsible for myself and my family,
    including how I choose to
    invest. So please do not take the main attraction of the forex market and change it and claim
    it's to protect investors.
    I do not have $5,000 or $10,000 to put in an account. These micro accounts are the only
    way that individual traders have
    any hope of making any money. If you pass this,myself and all individual forex traders
    will loose our ability to trade
    and make the extra money to help us get thru this recession. !!!! By the way, profits made
    trading are Taxable. So the
    government will loose the capital gains paid on the profit made by individual traders who no
    longer can trade. I
    URGE
    YOU NOT TO PASS ANY CHANGES to trading the forex market, especially
    REGARDING
    LEVERAGE!!!!!
    Respectively,
    Robert J. Roland
