I have not been able to trade my positions for 6 months. Pointless and unfair limitations.

I am opposed to changes in my ability to invest in inverse or leveraged securities, because it is an important part of my investment work. I am very well informed about all of this, and these proposed changes would cost me a lot of money. I will take you to court if necessary.

It is completely unjustified to not allow retail investors the Same opportunities that hedge funds are allowed to leverage for the same purpose.

Please do not limit my ability to trade ETFs and inverse instruments. This is a very important part of my Trading!

I, 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 the public, not just the privileged. I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. I cannot buy puts in all my investment accounts. Inverse funds are the only way for me to play the downside in the market, without them I would have to go to cash and sit and wait for the market to turn back up.

I'd rather use a leveraged fund than deal with trading futures.

I AM STRONGLY OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST ProShares

Unjust

I have been an individual investor for a long time and I use leveraged and inverse funds periodically, many times for hedges on my holdings. I do not see why regulators need to tell anyone how to invest, and they do not need to be in the business of protecting people from themselves. The prospectus clearly explains the risks involved in these funds. I should not have to pass a test to show my intelligence on this subject. If this is the case why not have people show their intelligence on investing in general? Why not impose these restrictions on options trading?

A retail investor such as myself require access to these types of investments to hedge against risk. During the 2022 downturn they have protected me to successfully hedge my accounts. To test knowledge or require accredited investor status reduces liquidity and advances the disparity between economic classes.
