I can understand your situation..i am also in same situation trying to see whether forex can make me some money. But it can be boring and stressful.

But if someone can make his/her small fortune from forex, then no need to do job....just relax at home. It is like an early retirement.

To immigrate to canada, try canada PR- Permanent residency based on points system. Once you land in canada, then you can search for a job.

I dont think employers in US/Canada give job over the phone or sponsor visa.

There are plenty of jobs for people in forex. There may not be enough open positions but there are plenty of forex jobs. If you are educated and experienced most currency traders look for employment at big banks, such as Goldman Sachs or Morgan Stanley as analyst/traders. Big forex brokers such as Gain, GFT, FXCM are always hiring. You could also be on a forex focused analytics website such as dailyfx.com of fx360.com.

Sanaz it is not related to your topic but as you are so experienced I have a question:
Does it really worth to spend time on Forex market? I know it could be very personal but I want to see your view.
I am a software engineer and I don't have bad salary. I tried 1 year demo but couldn't focus because of my full-time job but my experience wasn't that charming.
I live in Iran too

There are plenty of lists. The economist does one, so does US News and World Report, Business week. Any one of those. I'd suggest "Google". It's this cool new thing where you can just type in what you want and it finds websites related to it.

You can search for canada PR on canadian immigration website. You can calculate your points and then see if you are eligible for it.
