leave the forex Current Margin Requirement at 100:1 Leverage
Hi,
I am a CFTC registered commodity trading advisor for over three years
now. I think the forex Current Margin Requirement at 100:1 leverage
should be left at this level. Forex market works on very small moves
unlike stocks and other instruments. Increasing the margin requirement
to 10:1 will have negative impact on market participants.
Small moves of less than a cent a day in most of the currency pairs
will not allow traders and market participants to trade effectively.
Thanks
