    Regulation of Retail Forex Market 1D# RIN 3038-AC61
    Dear Secretary of the CFTC,
    In referance to the Regulation of the Retail Forex Market ID# RIN 3038-AC61 proposed leverage
    change from 100:1 to 10:1 is too much regulation, I am opposed to this. I chose a 2 year education and
    1 year mentoring course to insure that I was prepared to choose a good broker, type of account, pip
    value, good money management and have knowledge of leverage and margin requirements and risk
    calculation before demo trading for at least 3 months. The proposed broker requirements will weed out
    the bad brokers and make it safe to keep an account inside of the well regulated United States.
    When trading with risk capitol it should be My choice as an American to have the choice as to how
    much I leverage my account, whether it be 100:1 or 200:1 for a mini account and no more than 100:1
    for a stantard account, those would be my choices. I am responsible and hold myself accountable for my
    choices and should not have to be penalized for the poor choices that many uneducated people have
    made. Thank You for your valuable time.
    Respectfully,
