Can US residents get more than 50:1 leverage by opening account oversees? Is it illegal? If not, which oversees broker is the best (capitalization & reputation) and accepts US residents? (Yes I know 50:1 leverage is already huge...)

#1. Why? Why go overseas and out of reach?

#2 Forget it! I think it was the Dodd-Frank act or some such legislation that ended overseas trading for Americans. 2010?

US traders can open an account wherever they want. It's the brokers who are supposed to be forbiden to accept US customers if they're not registered with NFA/CFTC.
Check FinFx, they were accepting US people...

It's my understanding that a US resident can get over the 50:1 via a non-US broker - which most are anyway. I'm not sure why you would want more than that though.
