    Regulation of Retail Forex - RIN 3038-AC61
    Dear Mr.
    Stawick,
    Hereby I would like to express my concern about the proposed leverage change for retail forex customer
    accounts.
    By limiting the leverage to 10:1, it will worsen the risk a trader needs to take.
    As a forex trader I will be forced to jeopardize more of my capital to be able to trade the same no. of lots, which in turn
    represents my daily bread and butter.
    I urge the CFTC not to change the current leverage regulations, so customers like me will not be forced to
    take unnecessary risk or even worse: not being able to trade any longer.
    Regards,
    H.L. "t Hoen
