Sir,
I am opposed to the proposal to limit forex leverage to 10:1 in the United States. As a part time trader that
primarily trades in mini lots, I am aware of the risks associated with trading and manage my account
accordingly. As an educated adult, I feel l can manage my own risk without unnecessary government
regulations. If this were to pass, it may lead U.S. traders to seek off shore accounts which may not be
reputable.
Please consider leaving the leverage requirements alone.
Thank you,
Tom Baumgartner
