    proposed new regs
    I firmly disagree with proposal to limit leverage
    on fx trading to 10:1. With a 4 pip spread on
    small lots (1/10th regular lot), small home
    bound day traders like myself it would be
    impossible to ever break-even. All traders
    absolutely need a 100:1 leverage to trade
    foreign currencies - especially when the
    merchant siphons off a minimum of 4
    pips/trade.
    Thank you for your consideration.
