    To whom it may concern, I am strongly against the proposed change of the leverage.
    For two reasons, one: you are asking people to trade big positions, possibly 10 times the amount
    they are currently trading = 10 times the risk equaling more than likely, big losses for people just
    starting their trading carers. For me it was a god send to be able to trade at 10 cent per pip ( or
    there a bouts), it reduces the amount risk thus reducing the stress levels and making it easier to
    stick to trading plans, hone your skills with real $$$ and becoming profitable. You can always go up
    in lot sizes no mater the margin , but if you are unable to go down to a comfortable size that would
    be a dam shame.
    Two: If the margin was to change, there is no way that small traders like myself would ever be
    able to relise our dreams of trading for a living and that is the biggest shame. In a world of trials
    and tribulations it's nice to have a light at the end of the tunnel with the possibility that the dream
    will come to reality.
