    Regulation of Retail Forex
    I wish you would leave things as they are because the current system is not broken, but if you must then
    consider the following:
    Instead of reducing leverage you could cap max position sizes ie a restriction of 1 micro per $100 to
    open a position and then leave leverage at 100 to 1.
    In this way a trader with the minimum $400 could enter into a 4 micro lot position and still withstand an
    account decline to $40.
    While traders are going to try and castrate you and kill your mother for placing any restrictions on their
    trading, at least you will not have wounded them too severely by unnecessarily reducing leverage.
