    Regulation of Retail Forex
    Mr. Secretary,
    I am an experienced retail Forex trader, and I am writing in regards to RIN 3038-AC61.
    I am opposed to your proposed margin requirement of 10% for all currencies. Please leave it at 1%; that is strict
    enough!!!
    The proposed requirement severely restricts my earning potential with trading Forex and unfairly gives overseas
    brokers a huge advantage over US brokers. I like the broker I have now (Interbank FX) and I don't want to change.
    I fully understand the risks associated with using highly leveraged trades.
    I will continue to trade Forex. It's up to you whether or not I use a US broker.
