    'Regulation of Retail Forex
    RIN3038-AC61
    It is my understanding that you are considering limiting the leverage on retail forex trading accounts. Have you considered
    what this will do to those independant traders who derive their income from trading forex? If a trader is CUlTently make
    $150,000 per year, that income will be cut to $15,000 per year unless he is willing to deposit ten times his current balance.
    I understand that the current financial crisis has resulted in a call for greater regulation of the financial markets, but those
    regulations should not be so extreme as to virtually eliminate a market from retail traders.
