Hi there,
I would like to voice my opinion to you about the subject of you changing the leverage for Retail accounts
with
U.S brokerages from 100:1 to 10:1.
If you go ahead with this not only will you lose your country money with customers going offshore, you
will also
damage the reputation of the forex trading industry as a whole which is regarded as the fastest growing
industry at the
moment. I am sure you will get many emails like this but it will not effect me as I do not live in the United
States.
So:
1.You will look ridiculous when U.S clients leave in droves.
2.Your country as a whole will lose heavily from the much needed income that currency trading can
provide for a countrys economy.
3.Offshore brokers and their countrys will profit even more.
Take this as a warning,
Regards
R.Kerr
