Why should I have to take a test to prove to you - unnamed bureaucrats - that I understand the risks and potential rewards of these instruments and what I do with my money.+ What tests can predict the
It is not the place of any government agency to tell me what I can invest in. This is a major overreach into my financial freedom.

As an Investor on TDAmeritrade I was approved an account to invest. My expectation, as a customer, is that my brokerage provide me all the tools that any investor would have access to and NOT based on my WEALTH!!!

Dear Finra,
Leveraged funds are an important part of my investment strategy. Please do not make them difficult to access.

That said, they are tax efficient relative to futures for those of us who must invest in taxable brokerage
I fall into the category of investors which this regulatory notice is aiming to protect: I am a relatively young retail investor who has chosen to invest in complicated funds on a self direct brokerage. Therefore, I feel the need to discuss my experience with complex products.
I acknowledge that these funds are more complicated than conventional products. However, complication does not mean
