Subject: UNFAIR DISCRIMINATORY RULE!

IN REGARDS TO THE NEW RULE 2520, I FEEL THIS IS AN EXTREMELY UNFAIR 
AND DISCRIMINATORY RULE.  I HAVE BEEN A DAY TRADER FOR SEVERAL YEARS 
AND AS ANY GROWN ADULT, I KNOW THE RISK ARE MINE TO ASSUME.

IT SEEMS THE RULE IS INDICATING THAT BY HAVING 25K
YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE.  OR BETTER YET, BY NOT HAVING 25K TO INVEST YOU 
ARE NOT A VALUABLE CUSTOMER FOR THE EXCHANGES.  

THIS RULE NEEDS TO BE REVERSED IMMEDIATELY.

I DO NOT DAYTRADE MY ENTIRE PORTFOLIO AS YOU ARE TRYING TO FORCE ME TO DO!
YOU ARE TURNING CAREFUL TRADERS INTO DANGEROUS TRADERS BY INDUCING THEM 
TO TRADE BEYOND THEIR COMFORT ZONES. SHAME ON YOU!
IMHO
BRIEF SUMMARY:  THIS RULE SUCKS
