My investment strategy uses a systematic rebalancing of ETFs, some of which are leveraged ETFs. I fully understand the risks of these leveraged ETFs, but with a disciplined quarterly plan of selling when gains have exceeded a threshold and buying when losses have exceeded a threshold, the greater volatility of these leveraged ETFs produce better performance over the long term.

I am absolutely oppose limitations on my ability to invest in ANY equities whether they be leverage/inverse, crypto, volatility-linked funds or any other instrument that I am able to freely invest in today.

If you want investors to limit their risks in any investment, ensure that brokers have educational materials on their websites when someone attempts to buy into what might be considered higher-risk investments. Require investors to pass a test if need be in order to proceed with their purchase.

I oppose restrictions on my right to invest

I oppose the regulatory requirement proposed by FINRA, in particular a cooling off period and net worth requirement. I currently used leveraged ETFs to enhance returns (fully understanding the downside risks) and I use them as a limited part of my overall portfolio. I'm fully capable of understanding leveraged and inverse leveraged funds and their risks. If FINRA imposes regulations, I believe there will be a disorderly unwinding of positions and existing investors could potentially incur substantial and permanent losses during the current period of market volatility.

Investing began for the everyday person to own part of a company while helping to fund it's growth. All these proposed "little laws" that are created to create a bigger chasm between the rich and the not so rich, just reveal how transparently you try to keep the people" down.
Investing is a personal choice. Stop trying to keep my financial situation in dire straits.

Regulators should NOT be limiting the publics choice to choose their investment vehicles.

I am a knowledgeable investor and I believe freedom to choose my investments is critical. Fidelity required significant levels of acknowledgment by me that I knew what I was doing before being able to invest in levered investments. Removing my ability to do so does not protect me, it inhibits me from free choice.

Please stop these unjust limits on individuals limits on investments.

I invest in the proshares 1x inverse S+p index and I am disturbed by the regulation that you propose as I will have no way to hedge or speculate on a decline in the S+P index unless I use the Futures market. This is an restriction on investors that is capricious and unnecessary. I want to have the ability to invest as I see fit without the heavy hand of FINRA interfering with my decisions!

Regarding your published intent to consider regulating investments in leveraged investments. I oppose any all actions you may consider that would restrict my ability to choose which financial products I may choose as investment tools.
