    Regulation of Retail Forex
    RIN 3038-AC61
    From: Tyre C Hollander in Camano Island, WA
    1. Revise the proposed rules to permit a Forex IB to operate either as an independent IB subject to the same
    minimum capital requirements that apply to a futures IB or as a guaranteed IB.
    2. Undertake a study of the retail Forex markets to assure that the rules it ultimately adopts are based on a solid
    factual understanding of the markets and are tailored accordingly.
    3. Defer to NFA to set appropriate leverage restrictions as it relates to the proposed 10:1 leverage. An onerous
    leverage restriction, such as this, creates opportunities for unregistered fraudulent schemes to exploit U.S.
    customers is contrary to the public interest.
