Futures Brokers for UK residents which are the best in the US

Hi,

I have spent the last 2 weeks researching the best futures brokers in the US as I find the UK ones are limited on platforms Saxo being the best of a poor bunch. So her is what I have

Tradestation Global they except UK residents and use interactive brokers but Interactive Brokers have ridiculous margin requirements which is the only thing that puts me off.

Ninjatrader excepts UK by an introductory broker Dorman or Phillips . The problem here is the NinjaTrader you have to pay a license lease you can get it free which as added to your commission but you if you don’t take the lease you don’t get all the profile toys. Also there are quite large fees for conversion currency to broker and wire transfers back to UKthey don’t except Card payments which most of the US don’t for some strange reason.

Tradovate good margins and good platform which is web based only fault they use Dorman as introducing broker.

Amp Futures seems good plenary of platforms good margin requirements. Again use Dorman as intro broker.

please feel free to comment if you have any others you would consider. I do like NinjaTrader’s platform ther are a lot of indicators and has an easy language .

Dorman and Phillip are FCM, they are not introducing brokers.
Dorman and Phillip are not Ninjatrader's IBs. It seems they don't even offer the Ninjatrader's platform.

You obviously haven’t opened an account or your confused or something

NinjaTrader is a platform they use Phillips as their introducing broker I know this as I opened an account with them, so your incorrect.

tradestation Global again is a platform not a broker they use Interactive Brokers .

Tradovate use Dorman and Phillips but push you to Dorman who charge $40 for currency conversion fees whilst Phillips don’t.

"You obviously haven’t opened an account"
How did you draw this conclusion?

"Ninjatrader excepts UK by an introductory broker Dorman or Phillips"
"Dorman or Phillips ARE NOT introductory brokers. They are FCM. Before you go into any other arguing check what is FCM and what is IB."

"NinjaTrader is a platform they use Phillips as their introducing broker I know this as I opened an account with them, so your incorrect."
I said "it seems they don't even offer the Ninjatrader's platform" because I can't find it on their web site. If you use it, good for you.

"tradestation Global again is a platform not a broker they use Interactive Brokers ."
"Tradovate use Dorman and Phillips but push you to Dorman who charge $40 for currency conversion fees whilst Phillips don’t."
Are you talking to me? I never said anything about this!!

"Amp Futures seems good plenary of platforms good margin requirements. Again use Dorman as intro broker."
Dorman can't be an IB because it is FCM!

"Tradovate good margins and good platform which is web based only fault they use Dorman as introducing broker."
Tradovate can use Dorman as FCM only, not IB.

You are "confused or something" and I would suggest you to learn more about FCM, IB, futures...

I suggest you learn to trade futures first and try and go out more.

What's wrong with Interactive Brokers or RJ O'Brien?

Futures broker:

1) Interactive Broker
2) ProRealTime
3) Tradovate
4) Trading Station
5) AMP Futures
6) Jigsaw
7) Ninjatrader


Do your due diligence and take your pick.

You who have already lost everything and are looking for a way to get your money back, stay away from all the EA’s, indicators, softwares as Metatrader, Jigsaw, Sierra, Bookmap and all other. Understanding the options on the futures is the only thing that will help you efficiently.
