Fwd: Voice Your Opinion on the CFTC's Proposed Leverage Change
Dear Sir,
Pardon me for being harst. I think you guys should used your brain instead to check on unregulated
brokers instead and those brokers that is giving the forex market a bad name by not executing the orders
correctly or worst still fraudulently.
If you decrease the leverage it will create more of those "fly by Night" kindda brokers elsewhere to
entice the retail players with high leverage. Please don't do this. Although your intention is good, but
we/i think the retail traders knows what they are doing, after all it's their money not YOURS!!!
MORON!!!.
regards,
Keith

Dear valued FXDD clients,
We wanted you to be aware that The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is
seeking public comment on proposed regulations concerning retail Forex trading.
PLEASE NOTE: FXDD Malta customers will not be affected by these proposed changes, but are
still encouraged to voice your opinions.
According to the CFTC, "leverage in retail Forex customer accounts would be subject to a
10-to-1 limitation," which means 10:1 leverage would be the maximum amount allowed for
Forex traders in the U.S.
