    Forex leverage
    Dear Secretary:
    I understand you are taking comments on the proposed changes to Forex trading. I'd like
    to comment.
    I believe it is overreacting to reduce maximum leverage to 10: 1. Forex movements are at
    least a order of magnitude lower than stock price movements. I recommend leaving this
    alone and asking brokers to give good clear disclosure statements/guidelines about
    recommended leverage for different levels of investors.
    Sincerely,
    David English
