ECN Brokers outside the US taking US customer?

This outfit looks like an offshore bucket shop.

 

Look over their website carefully, there are misspellings and poor grammar all over the place.

 

They are all too eager to help you establish a protected offshore account and their partner banks are all in Bumf*ck.

 

Their FAQ page does not exist.

 

This reeks of "RUN AWAY!"

 

HI sword. Our leverage is of up to 1:500, full ecn with cfd's. You can try demo at http://files.metatrader4.com/empireglobal/eg4setup.exe (right click on instruments' chart and select view all to access full cfd's list).

 

You can easily go live through a corporate vehicle.

Finfx does not take US customers.

EmpireGlobalFx only takes corporate accounts, not personal accounts.

 

 

By the way, is there a tool to measure the number of ticks per minute the broker is sending? I am trying HotForex, but have seen missing candles as compared to other brokers.

 

 

 

 

Conglo,

You are right it looks cheesy as hell. Check out https://www.finfx.fi/ they look legit. At least with the opinions we have in the US.

Hi, how may I help you Brett E?

 

Brett E | 17:20

do you allow US clients

 

Joni | 17:21

Yes, we do. We continue to accept clients from the US as usual. We also recognize the changing regulatory climate in the US which has no effect on FinFX's broker services.

Hi there.

About Hot Forex watch out about there Bonus for you will not get it back. This is tricky . But If you look at the terms on your choice that you decide to get you can be fooled (I screwed up) that you have a free ride. This is not true!

That said

Hotforex is Very good. I put in a$1000 on debt card (cost $8.00) and withdrawal all that I had left.(no charge) $604

I thought I had a 300 dollar bonus and was only down about a $100 bucks.

You learn. But HF was very good to me.

benloe, Thank you for the correction. My mistake.

With ECN the maximum leverage is 1:100 and with Normal and Micro accounts 1:200.

That is not as good as what Hotforex is offering.

I am not quite sure what you guys are saying about HotFX. Are they good or bad? Anyone in US have experience with them?

How about FinFX? Beside having couple of US Broker's account, I want to open overseas where they take US Clients, if possible... HELP!!!

 

HotForex is excellent. Tight spreads. Microlots. 1:300 leverage. Bonuses. LiveChat support 24/5. Skype. PAMM accounts available. Easy withdraw and deposit. [Note: Currenex account type with 15% rescue bonus is your best choice]

Thanks, Guys! I have been demo Hot Forex and I like it on demo side. That is why I asked if anyone had experience with them. FinFX, I haven't try demo yet. I heard good things about them as well. Gees, All these new rules complicated for US retail fx traders.

Maybe should buy small condo @ Belize and trade from there. LOL

Well if you can buy a Belize condo I want to be your friend. LOL

 

I looked at finFx too (and demo it) and think they are good , but I picked HotFX and to be honest I cant remember why. (easy money transfer?)

LOL. Sure. Yeah, Hot Forex is too easy to open an account. It's too weird. I have an account with CitiFX and they have me go through so many paperwork. They won't open an account until wet signature is received. Because they are under the banking regulation.

 

HotForex's data center is in Holland, Amsterdam. The best VPS for HF is CNS in UK (trader's package). Ping rate 8 ms. Just an FYI.

Thanks for the info.

All I can say is I put 1000 in and lost 400 and got the difference in a hart beat....

Well is that good?

I got back what I should have in a instant.

I am not saying this broker has proved itself but I was happy.

and I would not put allot of money in this account. Time will tell.

But for US clients we don't have much of a choice if you want to be free (funny isn't it. land of the free)

I think a big bank Switzerland still will take US clients.

Been a wail since I checked them out..

HotForex, I think that Bonus thing mess up everyone. You have to trade certain number of trade in order to WD.. something like that.

I felt their policy is too easy. No application to open an account. Just your name and email address is pretty much all you need to open an account. Too easy and this is weird to me. I guess I am not that spoiled yet. :P
