Dear Sir/Madam:
I have recently been made aware of your proposal to increae forex margin requirements by 10-fold.
This action will serve to do nothing but severely restrict and penalize my business, requiring me to tie-up far greater
amounts of MY CAPITAL--in order to realize the same income levels previously enjoyed .....key words are MY
CAPITAL!
The CFTC won't be happy until they force every broker in the US out of business ..... because I will simply close
my CFTC regulated accounts and transfer the money to my Dukascopy (non-CFTC) account--which I'm sure is what
most traders
will do.
I am sending this e-mail as a strong protest of your proposal!!
Scott Wolfe
President,
THETA CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
