    commenter_subject: Regulation of Retail Forex
    commenter_frdate: January 20, 2010
    commenter_frpage: Vol. 75, No. 12
    commenter_comments: It has come to my attention that there is a
    proposal up for consideration (Regulation of
    Off-Exchange Retail Foreign Exchange Transactions
    and Intermediaries) to implement the CFTC
    Reauthorization Act of 2008 ([] [] CRA [] []) 1
    with respect to off-exchange transactions in
    foreign currency with members of the retail public
    (i.e., [] [] retail forex transactions [] []).
    As a retail investor I find this proposal
    discouraging and unfairly restrictive to the
    average smaller investor. I sincerely hope that
    those elements contained in this proposal, which
    ultimately discourages retail investors from this
    market by imposing an extraordinary multiple
    increase in margin requirements, does not find it's
    way through the approval process.
