Hi guys,
I am just wondering, how do we go about opening a FOREX trading account since FOREX is not legal 100%. Can we use our local bank acc to do the transaction or do we really need to use a foreign bank account? Please advise
Thank You

Added on February 1, 2008, 7:59 pm QUOTE yeah, many bad news about them recently on spike issue, money gone and set to zero when clients made huge profits without any explanation. Accounts were disabled and money forfeited. I think that if clients break the rules, money should not be forfeited. can give me proof? why there is still people in their forum? i heard that they just do a ghatering for their members...

QUOTE(jack2 @ Feb 1 2008, 03:07 PM) yeah, many bad news about them recently on spike issue, money gone and set to zero when clients made huge profits without any explanation. Especially when you start earning mega profits from the broker. They will show their true evil face.Accounts were disabled and money forfeited. I think that if clients break the rules, money should not be forfeited. Why? Because most broker know that 90% of the traders lose money, so they take opposite of the trade of what you take. Thats the only way the rob your money and make money. There are quite a number of broker I read in the forum do this. I suggest you quit them and go for the big ones. The big ones never do this because they have big clients + they charge quite exp on spreads. Thats where there earn money. OR you can just go for ECN commission base brokers such as dukascopy or interactive brokers. but then, for those brokers may be someday I'm rich & much more skillful enough that I might open one acc with some Game money and start making killer ROI to rip them off with GbpJpy.

If you are going for FXCM, open HSBC acc, they are base on HSBC bank.(except FXCM USA branch for USD which is base on Bank of America) I like this because I dont get interbank fees charged when my money go there. I tried UOB and bankwired to my FXCM acc, I dont get the exact amount I bankwired, they had minus some money just to transfer between diff banks.

Can we choose to open account with FXCM in other countries other than US? |

QUOTE(jack2 @ Feb 3 2008, 12:43 PM) FXCM US uses Bank of America. Can we choose to open account with FXCM in other countries other than US? FXCM US branch For USD account use Bank of America only. If you open Eur/GBP or other currency in USA branch they still use HSBC. Yes u can open acc in FXCM UK or other branches. I suggest u go and check their website/ deposit fund & get the clearer picture. This post has been edited by billytong: Feb 3 2008, 02:22 PM |
