    Attn Mr. David Stawick, Secretary, Commodity Futures Trading Commission
    Re: Regulation of Retail Forex - RIN 3038-AC61
    I object to the new regulation, specifically the restriction of leverage. I support the concept of brokers falling under
    CFTC regulation and would prefer to trade through one of these brokers, but if the margin requirements are
    changed as proposed, I would take my business elsewhere. I feel that the disclaimers, warnings and all other
    information that is given to traders regarding forex and trading using leverage is currently more than adequate to
    allow an individual to invest their money with all necessary knowledge as to the risks.
    Sincerely,
    Tim Allen
