To whom it may concern: Sir, I am an investors of leveraged etf and I am comfortable of trading. I know I can loss all my funds doing it. As as investor being not allowed to trade leveraged etf is not fair. People who trades leveraged fund knows the risk of this fund. So please do not let this happen even if I am a small investor, it is my privilege to be part of trading this leverage fund.

Everyday the stock market is a risk i am willing to take, i feel this more would allow the rich to become richer and block the everyday Joe out from making money. I feel ther is a hidden agenda behind this.

I'm shocked to hear that leveraged products are at risk of being shut down or closed to the public. I'm a user of leveraged products and have done extensive research on my own.
