Please DO NOT cap leverage on foreign exchange trading at 10:1.
In these turbulent times, when we can't count on Government to keep financial markets under control,
and the US Government is running formerly unthinkable deficits, FOREX trading is an important way
for even the average investor to protect himself. Reducing the leverage from 100:1 to 10:1 would
essentially make this vehicle unusable.
Thank you for listening to my opinion.
