{quote}So if TFT the next largest funding co. in North America bans US clients... they would be considered no longer doing harm by the CFTC and the mountains of complaints against them will be ignored?!?!?!?!?
I do not think so US based props will stop onboarding US customers. They are on US ground. So admitting a ban on all US traders would mean they even cannot offer in-house broker trading CFDs on American ground for non-US clients. That would be too stupid. So they will look for different trading platforms until they cannot.

TFT has seen what can happen with MFF. That would be a big hurt to be next target from CFTC. If they are smart enough they would leave the USA as fast as they can and ban US residents like FTMO has done it. Once assets are frozen like on MFF they cannot escape anymore. That would be a required urgent move if they have half a brain. The risks not doing the escape are so huge, how can the CEO of US props sleep well at night ?

{quote}Regulator much less likely likely to go after a firm no longer 'causing harm'. Especially if there are ones still doing so.

Yes, this entire saga is hilarious. Bad apples continue, good companies and their traders can't operate. What exactly are we trying to accomplish.....no CFDs in the US? Fine, ban Oanda, Forex.com, IG, Interactive, TD, etc.
If it is "pay to play" and you can offer these products with CFTC registration, well, that's not regulation, thats' corrupt and a form of bribery, no? It seems the CFTC is more like the mafia than a regulator, no?

Do not know how many extra hints and invitations the US prop firms need. With the latest step it is crystal clear now, that any CFDs offered to US residents will not be tolerated. So no US prop firm can then offer an unregulated in-house broker to offer CFDs, even they would ban all US residents to participate. Because it is on American ground they cannot do this. They would at least need a regulation like Oanda or Forex.com to do so. For what are they; TFT, E8, MyFFX, SPT, TTT; waiting still ?? They have not heard the alarm bells ? I do not get it.

Actually I do not understand why Oanda with their own prop offer cannot offer this to US customers too if they are already licensed in the US as one of the very few.
Can someone explain me that ? I mean if Oanda does not offer this to US customers how any other US prop think they can do such business on US ground, heh ?

Please read what I wrote.

If a firm is no longer conducting the activities the regulator considers a breach of the laws / regulations it covers, then it is less likely to take action. That doesn't mean it won't take action, but a regulator only has so many resources to deploy. If it's faced with, let's say, 30 companies in the niche and 15 are still conducting said activities, then they're more likely to receive the attention.

In TFT's case (who weren't mentioned), even if they stopped taking US traffic then their scale may still make them of interest to a regulator.

Exactly.....so it is OK to offer it as long as you do not offer it to US citizens and you are "registered", meaning you have "paid to play". It is all so fucking corrupt and yet some ignore the obvious to suit their beliefs/agenda.
As with anything, just apply some common sense to the facts you see before you.

In my personal opinion, monty needs to reduce risk appetite.

Longivity is important.

Hmmmm..............I wonder what kind of slippage one experiences when trading in sizes that generate a 200K gain or loss? Certainly one is not scalping 1000 lots for 20 pips?
I wonder if the market "slips you to hell" so to speak?
