NFA- are they worth it?

Has the NFA actually done something to help Forex traders ever? Please post your experiences with NFA.

No , they are serious idots. Bunch of monkeys running the show. Kick their sorry asses out of here.

Is it true that NFA membership is not required for US spot forex brokers and is only optional? If so, why are US brokers still supporting the NFA after they are costing them thousands of customers?

Thats a great question. Do we ever really know what these GreySuits do? I bailed on US Brokers at beginning of this year. Why would they intentionally destroy Forex in US? The average NFA employee must have at least a 4 year College Education(so we know they are not dumb). So why then? Anybody?

I share your feeling.
I hope the two fingers you are missing are the middle fingers.
So you can show NFA how you feel about them.

I would rather make 1 million today so I could leave the USA tomorrow. Like many other poor bastard Americans-I is trapped! I have lost ALL faith in this form of "government". While we loose EVERYTHING-those bastard politicians leave their "jobs"-get into taxpayer paid Limo's and make millions on kickbacks and give away hundreds of billions of dollars to the same MF'rs that raped this country. Only my faith(and 3 kids) has kept me from going "postal". I suspect thats true for many others as well. We(Traders in general) all know that Orgs like NFA are basically useless. It seems you have to steal billions before anyone even notices. I say burn down the NFA and use its employees as fuel! LOL- that may be a bit much though.

The thing is whenever one gets consistently profitable and has an account with enough size to live very comfortably off his trading income there's no reason to stay in one of the many countries with a suffocating inefficient government. There are many countries that have no tax on capital gains income.
