The leverage does not bother me, it's the FIFO and no hedging that would impair my trading style, as I can have multiple positions going different directions at any time. So we'll see, an off shore corp. might be the way, I just don't have enough information at this time. I'm sure it will take at least one or two months. I just have to put this to rest once and for all.

Thank you U.S. government for not letting me make an honest living.
some brokers have CFD currency pair check your broker , it will help to have both direction.

Is there a new regulation that restricts US Residents from opening foreign accounts? I thought many on here had FXCM through London and other European forex accounts, which allows them to hedge etc.

Ok, I dont get this trading style, not for a second. Is there anyway you could explain it in a few sentences, because when I hear FIFO, I tend to do ape.
It's fairly easy. I don't care much for entries. It's all about TPs on different TFs.
Set the trades to TPs on all TFs and leave it alone. It's just a little different than the way trading happens here.

Our first time, NO ONE warned us about public etiquette and style ...

We were 'eating' in public & wearing bright colors .. stuck out like sore thumbs ..

And then I was a little sick {cold} ... literally cleared 1/2 the sub cabin and had everyone put on their masks. I helt horrible.

Wife and I pigged out at 'Viva la France' and can feel the 'hatred' for Americans as we sat on the bench eating our croissants in public.

but it was fun, will go back when yen is cheaper
Funny!

Reminds me of something I heard a couple of times... Once in Tokyo...another in Venice. Both times in "cool" local-type joints...

Have you got any pie? (said with a "drawl")

Before, US accounts were able to have different positions at the same time going in OPPOSITE directions (hedging). As for FIFO, before the Dodd-Frank act, let's say you put in 10 lots at 3pm, and then add another at 4pm. If you wanted, you could close your SECOND entry and let the first one run.

Now, FIFO forces US traders to close their "oldest" trade FIRST. First In First Out. The problem is, some traders who are caught in the wrong direction could technically "hedge" a position on a retrace to lessen their losses.

It's a lot of word but I hope I was clear

Here are fib levels of recent low/higs - we are under 1.4176, that's why it's more probable that PA will head down at this point - so if it breaks that channel on 15 i posted before - close. But let's wait:
