    Regulation of Retail Forex
    Dear Sirs,
    I wish to recommend that the proposed regulation of leverage in Forex accounts as an all encompassing
    regulation should not be done. This to some degree is a suppression on some of us who use the forex
    market to supplement income, without having to have large equity in our accounts. With $900 in my
    forex account, over the last year, i have increased this amount to nearly $3000, and I withdraw approx
    $500 per month paying my utility bills.
    As, like most, it took time and some education to understand the markets and leverage,and I myself lost
    money, i can confidently say I am doing well and plays and integral part in my income,
    Please do not change the leverage rules, this would be a disaster for many people and would force me to
    move my account to abroad brokerage.
    Thank you for your consideration
    Guy Gleason
