Dear Sirs:
I do not think adding additional requirements to the use of leveraged/inverse investments should be used. We have enough regulations now. If an individual wants to use these they already have to agree to various forms required by the brokerage they use.
I don't need to go through any more tests, classes or regulation in my investment decisions.
Let me decide on what I want
Please stop this none-sense. Traders are smart enough to read and educate themselves before buying leveraged or inverse ETFs, including myself. If you like to help the traders, here is something much more important you can do: Make our funds available right away after each transaction and/or at least within the hour. In this age of digital fast money, there is absolutely no reason to hold our
As a regular investor I educate myself and use a wide variety of funds to invest in the public markets. Leveraged and Inverse funds provide tools which help me to complete on a more level playing field with professionals, hedge funds and bankers. I need all the help I can get playing against the big boys/girls and taking these fund types away will make it harder for me, the average investor. If
Rendering legislation that stop any experienced investor from employing leverage ETFs as a strategy is ludicrous and is really none of your business, with all due respect. Focus on areas of impact for the country, including but not limited to eradicating guns, improving public education, recognizing that there is such a thing as climate change and doing something about it, educating people about

These market tools are valid investments and like all tools in all disciples, when used correctly, enable individuals to complete tasks. Education NOT restriction should rule the day. We live in a free
It is none of your business what I choose to invest in, and you are not some god-like incredibly talented people. You are just typical government employees trying and failing to appear smarter than the rest of us. We do NOT need you or your rules to "protect" us from investment risks.
We all understand the stock market has become a casino which the SEC refuses to properly
Dear FINRA,
I dont believe it is your right to give financial directions to retail investors. Inverse funds are part of my investment strategy. Just like larger institutions and high net worth individuals, I use these to hedge. It would not be considered a fair market practice if I am cut out from these investments due to my net worth or experience level. Again, FINRA or any regulators are in no
My account balance is under $10,000 and I have used the triple leveraged ETF's for over 3 years. The bid/ask spread on option prices expands during volatile market drops making it near impossible to buy/sell contracts. Meanwhile I'm still able to enter and exit trades in triple ETF's during these trying market periods. Do not take this investment opportunity from small
FINRA Adopts Amendments Relating to Reporting Transfers of Proprietary Positions in Debt and Equity Securities in Connection With Certain Corporate Control Transactions
I am totally against SEC Proposal Rule #S7-24-15. I do not need the Politicians of Washington to protect me from my own decisions on how to invest my hard earned money. I certainly understand the risks in investing in a variety of assets as well as the potential benefits. If you want to focus on areas that are important to me:
