To whom it may concern I am 72 years old now. I have been investing in equities since I graduated from college which is the mid 70s. As all we aware of the fact that the market did not go anywhere during that decade. The only way to make a decent return is by trading and I wish we have Market index ETF or the reverse of it at that time. We now have good products and I cannot understand why the agencies want to take it away from the public. I am aware of it some speculators will misuse these products knowing or inadvertently but so is the equities in general.

Don't want those regulations and could you please do away with the $25,000 in your account day-trading rule? Why is it that always the little guy gets the short end of the stick?

These new regulations are not needed. This is too much regulation.

Please do not regulate these leveraged markets. They are there for those of us who are experienced and know how to control our risk of loss.

I oppose restrictions to my right to invest

Me not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public. Thanks!

Please leave me to my own choices. I not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

I object strongly to this plan to limit my freedom to invest how I choose. I have many years of experience in options and leveraged ETF trading and make my living doing so. Leveraged funds are very important to me and my trading strategy. I am completely against this potential plan and request it be terminated from consideration.

Investors need to make decisions

I find the idea of restricting access to financial tools extremely offensive. The market is built around the concept of public availability. Restricting access to certain stocks or tools simply because an elite few deem them unfit for the unwashed masses is egotistical and morally reprehensible. Please do not create a private walled garden around inverse and leveraged funds. Consider the scenario where company A is struggling. Investor 1 has invested in the stock, but Investor 2 shorts it.
