There is no regulation prohibiting it. Once again, the brainwashing effects of the US government. I wish people would research and state facts before posting. Everything I post is fact, not opinion.

Need US broker for a large account

OK, to each his own. I just refuse to be in any game, contest, trade, whatever where the opposition wins when I lose and loses when I win WHERE THEY CONTOL THE OUTCOME, after all it is THEIR SOFTWARE. In addition, the transaction cost with a market ...

Need US broker for a large account

Absolutely agree regarding FCA. So my issue is this, if the NFA has such a sincere interest in protecting the trader as they claim, why can't we trade with an FCA broker? Yes, I do firmly believe my broker is an ECN as I constantly see my trades ...

Need US broker for a large account

I'll take the random island. Once again, your money is not protected in either case. Difference is, I only need 10% of the margin, so I am literally risking 90% less money than someone using an NFA regulated broker. The NFA is regulating the trader, ...

Need US broker for a large account

Still doesn't address the issue of having 90% less money at risk. If I am trading a standard of GBPJPY with a 50 pip stop, I am risking about $500. I only need $400 in margin, but I'll use $500 for the 50 pip stop. With a US broker, I need $4,000 in ...

When you lose, they win and vice versa. It's right there in their terms and conditions. You are oblivious to think they don't play games. They control the software in a game that has a complete conflict of interest with you.

Need US broker for a large account

What happened with OANDA when the GBP dropped big a couple of weeks ago? It's fact, I'm not making it up. If you want to deposit $5,000 for margin to execute the same size trade I do for $500 in margin, more power to you. Your funds are not ...

Need US broker for a large account

Only accounts over $10,000 and I do report them. This not about taxes, I pay mine just as if I earned the money with a US broker. There is absolutely no law prohibiting me fom trading with an offshore broker. I simply chose to only put 10% of my ...

I, too, am a real trader. I have other sources of income, but forex is a significant source for me. I completely disagree with you. US brokers are absolutely corrupt. They freeze platforms, have random spikes,which cannot be found elsewhere and when ...

Need US broker for a large account

So the point here is, let's say I didn't have $2,000 laying around for margin, my family would be out $800 in income. Anyone else think that may impact a family of six? What % of families that size do you think have $2,000 in disposable income to ...

Closing now for over $800 profit. Once again, I used $134.40 in margin. I would have needed approx. $2,000 in margin with a US broker. Folks, once again, we are being completely screwed by our government. What I am doing can be done with a regulated ...

At this very moment, I am short one full lot of EURAUD. You know how much margin I'm using? $134.40. I'm up $510. Show me how I can do this in the way you are suggesting and I'm all in.

Can you point me in the direction of liquidity for EURAUD and GBPAUD? Or once again, as in online poker, I should just give up my income to over regulation? I have a family of six and the extra money I earn in forex and used to make in online poker ...

In my opinion, there is way more money to be made in spot. This is why everyone went to spot in the first place. Now they have put regulations in place whose sole purpose is to bring that business back to futures. I also trade crosses exclusively, ...

Precious metals and the stock indices in the spot market. I don't care about the writing being on the wall, it is still about having the same freedoms as everyone else. You, my friend, are the one missing the point. This country over regulates ...
