    Regulation of Retail Forex - No limitation on margins at 10 to 1
    RIN 3038-AC61
    In part, the proposed regulations states:
    "to collect security deposits in a minimum amount in order to prudentially limit the leverage
    available to their retail customers on such transactions at 10 to 1"
    Limiting the Trading Margin to 10 times will mostly eliminate the normal retail trader. Let the
    traders and the brokers = FREE MARKET decide what their margin will be, not Big Government.
    Leave the margins as they are.
