    Regulation of Retail Forex
    Changing the leverage to 10:1 and the margin requirement to $10000 is akin to making someone put $10000 in their
    brokerage account in order to buy one tenth of a share of stock. This regulation would not make it profitable to trade anymore
    - one would need huge swings in the exchange rate to make a decent profit. It is my goal to become a successful currency
    trader, support my family, pay my federal taxes, and live out the American dream. This new regulation would end that
    dream.
