    Dear Secretary,
    I would like to take a moment to register opposition to the proposed regulatory measures regarding
    ForEx trading accounts.
    Like all of the traders I know, I am well aware of the risks involved in trading and welcome them. That
    is an inherent part of the enterprise. The lure of the markets will simply lead people to lose more money,
    many times. Sophistication is not a prerequisite for wealth.
    Moreover, if the entry cost becomes too high, then small investors like myself, would never learn to
    trade, while this is a secondary consideration, to be sure, it is still an important distinction of the ForEx
    market: low barrier to entry makes it possible to learn while doing rather than through virtual or "paper"
    trading.
    Please take the most care and consideration in this matter
    Sincerely,
    Bruce Webb
