    I am opposed to changing the leverage requirements for the Fores exchange.
    It seems all of the recent changes in the financial markets have been designate to make it difficult for an
    investor with limited resources to be able to invest in any thing other than loser CD's which pay next to
    nothing.
    As a small investor I have been making returns of 10% to 15% on my investments in both stocks and
    forex markets. New restrictions for leverage requirements only make it more difficult for the small time
    investor to enter the markets. While I understand that you think you are protecting people, you must
    understand that this still a free country and the individual must be responsible for themselves.
    I perfectly understand what a 100:1 leverage can do. Give me the option to choose how I invest, don't
    regulate me to death.
