Regulation of Retail Forex
Mr. Stawick'
As a currency trader, I am writing to let you know I am opposed to the proposed plan (RIN 3038-AC61) to change
the leverage rule to 10:1. Traders should have the option to determine their own risk levels. If that privilege is
taken away many traders, including myself, will likely transfer to offshore brokers.
Another result of this action coul be loss of jobs as U.S. based brokers loose customers.
Thank you for your time, and I hope that after further consideration the CFTC will decide to leave the leverage
regulations as they are.
Sincerely,
Robert Sample
