    I am writing in regards of the proposed new leverage and minimum margin requirements for retail forex accounts.
    I firmly believe that the US is the Flag of Freedom in all the extend of the word. However this concept is changing.
    The many "unnecessary regulations" that the government agencies are imposing in the market are making it very difficult to
    trade
    in the US, e.g FICO rule and no hedging, and made other countries that don't impose all these unnecessary rules more
    attractive
    for the individual trader. I want to keep trading in the US but it is becoming increasingly difficult to do so for the previous
    reasons.
    I plead with you to keep the market as simple, open and free as it has always been.
    This rules are supposed to protect people against loosing money. However, in my opinion, this rules are keeping traders from
    making
    money, at least in the US and leading our americanforex brokers to economic disaster since they will be left without retail
    customers. Americans have the freedom to look for
    more friendly markets overseas .
    Once more please do not pass the proposed regulation on leverage and margin for the Forex Retail Market.
    Sincerily,
