    Regulation of Retail Forex
    Regarding Regulation: RIN 3038-AC61
    I am a small capitalized forex trader. Reducing the leverage to 10:1 would eliminate my
    business. ! make my living fl:om this endeavor. It is a modest living, but it is what ! do.
    use a 200:1 leverage most of the time. Sometimes, I use a 400:1 leverage.
    I am not in a trade long enough for this leverage to be an issue. Most of my trades last
    minutes to one hour and then I am back out of the market.
    Please do not change the
    maximum leverage limitation on forex trading to 10:1. Once again it would kill my
    business.
    Thank you for your concern in this matter.
