    Regulation of retail Forex
    RIN 3038-AC61
    I want the leverage to stay at 1:400 or better. Clearly between yourselves and NFA you want to
    eliminate the small market participant in forex. Certainly the small players are not asking for these
    dramatic limiting changes. Therefore the big players are manipulating your decisions. I can provide
    examples of that if you like. Its not a secret. Anyhow, Be noble and try to give the general public a
    chance at some liberty and freedom that is no doubt being taken away from americans at an accelerated
    pace. Making the leverage 10:1 is going to eleminate most of the small guys, and thus reducing the
    market fairness. Is the USA is in such a state that markets need to be manipulated to survive, then best
    of luck, I can't help with that.
    I have already opened new accounts overseas where there is still quality trading practices in place and
    although I have USA forex accounts I no longer deposit money to them or trade because of the NFA (No
    Forex Allowed) nonsense, and now it seems CFTC has been told to finally get rid of market fairness.
    Thats what I think. Others know more than I and have specific insight into the real reasons behind the
    NFA ruling and now yours, rll send them if you like. I'm submitting this letter politely but sternly, your
    decision will tell me if you are democratic or not, for I am sure you are not receiving any positive replies
    to increasing margin to 10:1. Nobody will ask for that, but you can force it on us if you think thats good
    business.
