    Regulation of Retail Forex
    As a trader, I am very concerned about regulation of retail forex accounts to a 10:1 ratio. This will
    effectively remove most private investors from the forex market. Specifically, I am talking about the
    proposed Farm Bill, number RIN 3038-AC61. As a believer in our constitution, we need less regulation, not
    more, to keep our nation truly "the land of the free". Any comments would be gladly received and
    considered.
    Sincerely,
    William Guy Seaman
    Oldsmar, Florida

    Client Services 20: Hello, my name is Tyler. How can I help you?
    William Seaman, 52393: Can you tell me the name of the new regulation being considered by the ftc that
    will limit leverage to 10:1, and any comments yoou might have abnout this?
    Client Services 20: Yes - the proposal is part of the Farm Bill - the portion of it to change the leverage is
    titled "leverage in retail forex customer accounts would be subject to a 10-to-1 limitation"
    Client Services 20: If you feel strongly about the proposal, we encourage you to help determine the
    outcome of these proposed regulations. You can help make an impact by sending comments directly to the
    CFTC at: [email protected].
