    RE: Regulation of Retail Forex...
    Forex Leverage Restriction Proposal: RIN 3038-AC61
    Please know that I STRONGLY oppose any proposed ruling that
    would
    dramatically restrict leverage (10:1).
    I do not oppose regulation or regulatory agencies. However, all
    such regulation needs to be fair and take the consideration of
    ALL investors into account. It is true that high leverage can get
    some traders into trouble if used thoughtlessly, But education is
    the solution, not restricting what experienced traders can and
    cannot do with their investment dollars, seek to guide, not
    dominate. All government should exist to protect people and their
    property, not to limit any individual potential.
    Thank you for considering my view,
