    To the Secretary of CFTC:
    It has come to my attention that your organization intends to enact new rules, namely reference RIN 3038-
    AC61.
    I feel that what will happen is you will be cutting the United States and its participating citizens who are
    involved in Forex speculation to move their accounts elsewhere. That may cut the country's tax revenue
    from earnings, and many people who are not aware of unscrupolous firms elsewhere to be inadequately
    funded and lose their money entirely, adding to the loss of revenue to our government, already seriously
    underfunded and over budgeted.
    I for one already trade on the London market instead of New York, because of rules currently stifling a
    person's ability to make certain trades.
    Thank you for taking the time to read this and hopefully enough of us will write and sway you to not change
    the leverage.
    There will always be those whose greed opresses their sensibility and they feel that they know "enough to
    be dangerous. "
    Well they do; but the danger is to themselves and those of us who proceed with caution until we have
    enough skill and nerve to trade and not blame the system when we lose.
    Respectfully submitted,
    Stanley Randolph
    Forex Trader.
