    We say no to 10:1 leverage rule
    Please we don't need this this is gonna kill fx spot in usa, do it if you want:
    -
    90% of the account will go offshore, mostly to the United Kingdom
    -
    Thousands of high educated jobs will be lost
    -
    An industry worth over $1 billion gone, loosing millions in taxable revenue.
    -
    The proposal does not fix fraud, the subject the rule tries to adjust. Battle against unlicensed FDMs and
    IBs fix the fraud, not 10 to 1 leverage.
    - 100 to 1 leverage is very popular. Traders simply will not accept 10 to 1 leverage.
    - Unregulated dealers from around the world will also benefit.
    Conclusion: Thousands of jobs lost when unemployment is at 10%, consumers more vulnerable to fraud,
    and the United States tosses away one of the most promising export industries.
