    Proposed change in leverage
    As an independent trader I am totally against your proposed change in leverage. First of all you can never lose more then
    what is in your account as
    the broker will close you out if your getting near your account size. Secondly as a trader I always uses stops, always. And
    last but not least if you do institute the
    proposed change 1 will move my account to the UK. So what's the point. By the way, forex (the spot market) moves in
    100th of scent moves. Without the leverage what the point.
    I hate to put it this way but it's a dumb idea.
    Sincerely,
    Richard Karp
