Opinion on the CFTC's Proposed Leverage Change
I refuse the Proposal to change the Leverage from 100:1 to 10:1.
This Proposal will make
higher-cost
for small investors as they will look for Brokers to accomodate 100:1 and it
means raise of "the-Spread" accordingly. (not mentioning many more fake-brokers will be launched)
Thank you,
Adji, small investor.
attch: The said Proposal, I refused.
