Regulation of retail forex
Dear Sir/Madam, I'm writing to express my opinions on the proposed changes to the retail forex leverage
requirementsRin 3038-ac61.
I am a retail individual forex trader that cannot afford the margin requirements in the stockmarket. My only hope
of earning money is because of the current leverage of 100:1 threshold offered by most forex brokerage firms. I am
unemployed and the only prospects for earning money is in the forex market place.
If the new leverage requirement is changed to 10: 1, I will no longer be able to remain in the the forex market. I'm
sure that many other traders are in the same position and I strongly urge you to reconsider changing the current
leverage.
Sincerely, Thomas Grant
