    I am only trading 10,000 lots and the change of 10:1 margin would make me have to have more per
    trade which I cannot afford...I am only trading 1 lot of 10,000 and it only costs me 100 per trade..I am
    not overleveraging myself and by making the change you are suggesting..would make me go to 1000
    lots...I would take me weeks to make $100 because instead of making a $1 per pip..I would be making
    $0.10 per pip...
    You would be forcing people to have more money and risk more per trade ....
    How does that help...?
    Thanks,
    Bill
