To be honest i don't think there are too many brokers who supports US, as it comes with massive issues and complications, so that's why majority of the top brokers restrict themselves from US.

Hi there, I would never touch the brokers that are not regulated. That is a bad sign already, need to make sure your hard earned money is protected by the broker.
I use Infinity Futures for my trading and have always had a good experience with them.

Please do not go for any unregulated broker...just No and no question after this ...
Thing is you can't use any MQL5 signal services with the regulated US brokers, like FXCM. Probably due to the FIFO rule, which sucks ass.

Minimum account size is $10K for futures/equities trading. If day-trading equities then min. size is $25K.
Forget about trading forex with IB. Min. size is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. Thanks regulators for protecting us.
You can still trade the currencies with the futures.
AUDUSD = Aud futures
EURUSD = Eur futures
NZDUSD = Nzd futures
USDJPY = Jpy futures (inverse)
USDCAD = Cad futures (inverse)
USDCHF = Chf futures (inverse)
GBPUSD = Gbp futures

***Can trade the crosses by shorting one futures & long the other futures. Won't be exactly the same as fx. So to short EURJPY you could short Eur futures & buy Jpy futures. Check tick value of each currency first.

***Can also trade US$ futures directly with DX futures.

***There are also "mini" futures for the currencies, equity futures & commodity futures. Contract value is 1/10th of standard size so Eur futures = $12.50 per tick and Eur "mini" futures = $1.25 per tick. Not very good liquidity with these so best for swing trading.

Is that correct or not?

The last I heard from Qanda, they don't accept US citizens anymore.
I wonder, if anyone here works with forex.com? The baby of US financial system that is officially recommended to Americans. But their rules simply knocking me down, anyone is having positive experience with this broker?

I have traded with Oanda for years and they seems to be fair about trading.
The truth is that when someone put doubt into your thoughts then everything
becomes speculations. It's best to keep it simple and learn the business and make
the money.

Trading is about business planning, know what you planning to make in revenue and how you plan
your attack on the market. Daily Profit Budgets with Monthly Goals..

https://www.forexfactory.com/showthr...71#post9747371 when forexbrokerinc changed its path some months ago they recommended FxChoice strongly but I wanted to try to see what else was around and eventually went to the babypips thread mentioned in this link. My experience with the fearsome US government, via this year's tax return's new question via TurboTax....for such as myself might be instructive for those who are scared to try outside the US.
