    "Regulation of Retail Forex"
    Dear Sir/Madam,
    I understand there is a proposal currently being discussed and considered, by the CFTC, that
    would greatly reduce the leverage rate from 100:1 to 10:1.
    I have to say that this from a small investors point of view this would basically make the value of
    being involved with Forex trading pointless and I suspect it would be detrimental to the industry as
    a whole, as it would preclude many others from wanting to become involved too.
    May I strongly urge you to not implement such a policy as one of the key factors in this
    investment form is the leverage factor.
    Regards,
    Graham Joy.
