    Regulation of Retail Forex
    To Whom it May Concern:
    As a retail forex investor, I find the new regulations proposed by the CFTC to limit the allowable
    leverage to be very damaging to small investors. Limiting leverage to 10:1 would effectively remove
    many small individual investors from the forex market. Many of us have spent a very long time - years
    in some cases - developing and perfecting trading strategies that depend on the utilization of more
    highly leveraged accounts offered by typical retail forex brokers. I am writing to ask the powers that be
    at the CFTC to NOT pass any regulations that would limit the current leverage practices of retail forex
    brokers.
    Thank you,
    Milos Beljin, M.D.
