Everyone should have the ability to invest in leveraged investments as long as they understand the risks. Placing restrictions on the small investor creates disadvantages while large institutions take advantage of opportunities. Leveraged investments as long as they are not your entire portfolio allows the small investor to maximize profits without placing large amounts of capital at risk. Please do not take this option away from us.

Leave my investments alone.

I use leveraged funds to enhance the performance of my long-term portfolio and rebalance them systematically on a quarterly basis. I know what I am doing. The proper use of these leveraged products is a key part of my financial plan.

These funds are important to me. They improve my performance over the long term. I am not engaged in reckless trading, I understand the effect of daily magnification of an indexs price movement, and I use this magnification to my advantage.

You've taken everything from us already.

Ive been waiting for volatility to come in order to purchase more positions of CEFs at discounts, when without warning a handful suddenly were blocked. Merrill Lynch wont provide me a solution to DCA my holdings and now I am stuck. This is retirement income and my investing ability is being handcuffed. Outrageous! If they are on public exchange give people their freedom please.

It's especially important regulators hear from you in your own words. Please use the body of this email to customize your response. No one has the right to tell the citizens of America how to spend their monies that they have earned. The has stolen enough of our money.

If we can go to the casino and lose our life savings, then why can't we invest in the future of money!! Protect us by regulating the fraudsters and let us invest in what we choice to!

I oppose restrictions on investing, why restriction is ?

I have good understanding of the risk in these securities. I have been investing and trading for over 25 years. It could have a very big impact on my investments if I was blocked from being able to continue trading positions I already hold. In many cases I use these securities to hedge risk in other positions. Thank you

I prefer you mind your business and regulate crypto. Dont forget who you work for
