Regulation of Retail Forex
Please Leave Leverage at 100:1
I'm an active Forex Trader and strongly object to the proposals to reduce Forex Leverage from 100:1 to
10:1 for all NFA and CTC regulated firms.
This portion of the regulation would effectively put US traders at a SEVERE DISADVANTAGE
against global traders, and force many of our accounts offshore into unregulated areas.
This business is NOT like commodities. There are
no margin calls to drive a trader into huge debt. If the
trade goes
insanely wrong, the trader's position is simply closed out.
Thank you,
Dave Friedholm
