Please Note
I'm writing this email to voice my opposition to the proposed regulation that would limit
leveraging in retail Forex customer accounts to 10:1. I appreciate the increased risks that
leverage can have on some investors; but, I don't believe its the federal government's role to
decide for its citizens what level of investment risk is appropriate. Rather, I think its the
federal government's responsibility to ensure that the risks are clearly communicated and
understood. Doing more than this is a breach of government authority and will simply drive
investors to offshore accounts.
Sincerely Karen Oldmixon
