    Regulation of Retail Forex
    To whom it may concern
    I currently trade the FX markets and I received a letter from my broker today stating that you all wanted
    to hear public opinion in reference to RIN 3038-AC61. My opinion is that the leverage should stay the
    same and let investors have a choice. I agreed with changing the 400:1 to 100:1 because this gave
    traders and investors a more balanced playing field. I think changing it more would be a dictatorship
    policy, moreover, individuals will go over seas and the U. S won't get tax dollars. If changing it to 10:1
    would help anything besides blocking out smaller traders then I guess you all have your reasons, I
    understand why you are regulating the Energy business. As far as becoming educated by my broker, I
    had to find out certain information on how to trade on my own, nobody spoon fed me on that, so I
    achieved a status of sophistication on my own. Furthermore, I don't think a dollar amount makes one
    sophisticated. They could have inherited that money in a number of ways.
