I trade spot Forex (personal account) and have been asked about starting a fund or managing accounts for folks who don’t understand the volatility.

I was perusing the CFTC website and legal disclosure requirements for CTA’s and CPO’s and it does appear that there are exclusions to the CFTC registration process for “managers” with 15 or fewer investors? I was looking under Title 17, Part 4, Sections 4.13 and Section 4.14.

From what I can infer from the site is that a prospective hedge fund manager would still have to file disclosure docs with the NFA but may be exempt from CTA or CPO registration.
