I heard this is a really good broker but never used them in the last few years, been stuck at Forex.com

Leverage is down to 1:50 in USA for all US Clients as well, I just read the bill. Don't let a broker fool you into thinking you can get 1:500 leverage still if you live in the USA, those days are over for you.

Unless this foreign broker is registered with the NFA, which is unlikely.

Thats exactly what I thought.

well the email posted above says only a 100:1 leverage for all other major currencies? Ahhh help we got to find some creative solutions. I'd like to trade with a 200:1 leverage. What can we do?
I think there needs to be more discussion on this topic, perhaps a dedicated thread

i am with you. It needs to go back to how it was 200-1
does anyone else want to help me change it back?
If the gov. Thinks thyis is good they are wrong.
I lost my house because of this stinking law.
Our freedom of choice is being taken away.
Anyone want to help eachother??

I have to disagree. I have been with fxcm for years. The leverage was dropped before we even knew who Obama was. What happened is that fxcm allowed us to transfer our funds to fxcm europe once the feds decided to drop the leverage. This allowed us to trade outside of the united states margin restrictions. eventually the government realized what the brokerages were doing and forced them to put all US clients back to fxcm US because they saw that we were skirting these bull**** rules by trading with fxcm's overseas affiliate.
