It's the concept.
Some ass-clown crashes the mortgage market (and over-leverages himself), sends the market into the shitter and now they think this is gonna change it.
Here's an idea, instead of limiting leverage let's focus on what the REAL problem was.....shitty mortgages and illiquid derivatives.
Now I suffer.
Just felt like bitchin because now I have to cut back on all the drugs and hookers i'm buying just to put up a little more margin in my forex acct.

It's called "compounding gains", you should try it.
'LOL'? I think you'll find the joke's on you!
You can still go overseas if you need this kind of leverage. The new NFA margin regs should not affect non-NFA brokers. I am sure you can still find a few 400:1 Cyprus if you still needed that leverage and from what I understand, a lot of EA systems rely on that excess leverage for their systems.
