    Regulation of Retail Forex
    Dear Secretary,
    Please don't kill the retail forex market in the U.S. with RIN 3038-AC61.
    Limit of 10 tO 1 leverage will only hurt U.S. Retail Forex Trade!
    I strongly urge you to reconsider before implementing this restriction.
    My risk model is determined by a certain percentage of total capital available for Forex trading, and not an
    arbitrary amount such as 10 to 1.
    Generally my risk is less than 10 to 1, but I have the freedom of choice to choose my risk tolerance, it is not
    dictated to me.
    I am sure that I am not alone in my assessment of RIN 3038-AC61. The only thing mandatory 10 to 1 leverage
    will accomplish is to drive retail Forex to offshore accounts.
    Thank-you for taking the time to read this.
    Respectfully submitted by,
    Kevin Kendall
