    Regulation of Retail Forex'
    RIN 3038-AC61
    You can't possibly fathom the damage you will do to retail traders that rely upon the leverage
    to trade and make a living trading if you change the leverage amount. This is not about big
    banks using this to hurt the markets. You will wipe out the livelyhood of thousands and
    thousands of people over ight and only add to the unemployment problem this country
    already faces. Many retail traders rely upon the forex market as their sole source of income
    or worse yet their only way to reach the pinnacle of the American dream and work for
    themselves.
    Please don't not allow this poorly thought out idea of 10 to 1 leverage to succeed or it will for
    many like me out of their homes, into welfare and into abject poverty with no hope of ever
    getting ahead life. Look instead to finding regulation that won't harm the small retail trader
    like so many of us.
