I have been trading levered products for over 10 years now and hope to be able to have the option of doing so unfettered by unnecessary restrictions/regulations in the future.
While I agree that there are investors/traders in the market that use these instruments that are not fully aware of what they really are, the same can absolutely be said about every other ETF type products available on the
My online broker just made me aware that regulations are being considered that would put additional restraints on my ability to trade leveraged and inverse ETF's. I object to what is unnecessary.
