    Regulation of Retail Forex
    Ref: RIN 3038-AC61
    Gentlemen:
    While I appreciate the effort to protect the consumer, this proposal seems beyond the pale and I
    respectfully request that it not be enacted.
    I could live with 30-1 or 50-1 leverage., in fact I usually use 30-1 as a modus operandi.
    But 10-1 is not acceptable and will only force traders to go out of the country and obviously work against
    what the proposal was attempting to accomplish.
    I'm not among those who think these proposals are loaded in favor of the big banks, etc. and are using
    their clout to rid the market of smaller traders.
    However, 10-1 leverage will have that effect if enacted.
    Thank you for taking the time to read my comments and I join with other traders in asking that you not put
    this 10-1 requirement in place.
