I oppose restrictions to my right to invest in leveraged an inverse funds. I am aware of the potential risks and potential benefits and have spent a lot of time studying them already. I consider them an important part of my overall strategy and have been able to fine tune their use over the years. I do not go overboard with them and they are not a high percentage of the money I invest. I rarely

I found it very alarming to hear that FINRA is considering restricting access to leveraged ETFs. It is very concerning to hear that regulators believe private investors are incapable of understanding the risks associated with a leveraged asset like the ones that I utilize in my investment strategy.

Hello FINRA,
I have been using leveraged ETF's in my portfolio using a strategy based on an algorithm that helps me decide when to buy and sell and I have been successful using this strategy. I have a firm belief that I, not the regulators should be able to choose the investments that are right for myself and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not
