    Regulation of Retail Forex
    In regards to RIN 3038-AC61.
    As a Canadian trader who uses a US broker to trade in the FOREX market it is crucial to use a 100:1
    leverage. With the preposed leverage changes to US based Retail Brokers this will have a significant
    impact on them.
    Personally if this change does go through it will not have an effect on me. I already have a
    UK based
    Retail Broker that is not regulated by the CFTC and who will not be restricted to 10:1 leverage.
    All this change will do is lose current and potential traders using US based Retail Forex market making
    them non competetive with the rest of the foreign brokers.
    Thank you.
