Regulation of Retail Forex
Regarding: RIN 3038-AC61
As a self-employed trader I wish to voice strong opposition to proposed onerous increases in margin requirements
for retail forex transactions. I believe there are much more pressing issues that need to be addressed in the financial
system than this. Current rules are adequate to weed out weak or inexperienced hands who do not exercise proper
risk management. All retail traders should not be penalized with this kind of rug pulling move, which I suspect will
simply drive more transactions off-shore.
Respectfully,
David Silver
