    'Regulation of Retail Forex'
    I object to the new proposed regulation for minimum margin requirement.
    This will keep alot of people from trading forex in the US.
    It seems to me that it has not been thought through thoroughly, because the US resident
    who wants to trade at 100:1 margins will simply open an account with a broker in the UK or
    anywhere else but the US.
    So why must the US broker be penilised by regulation and being withheld from participating
    in this market when the rest of the world is doing it in anyway?
    Or am I missing something?
    Regards
