And, if they didn't conduct the study or, solicit public comment, how exactly do we interpret that? Again, when was this study supposed to occur?

So, whatever happened to the study these guys were supposed to take? Anybody else recall hearing about it? ... Dodd-Frank SEC. 929Y. STUDY ON EXTRATERRITORIAL PRIVATE RIGHTS OF ACTION. (a) In General- The Securities and Exchange Commission of the ...

US citizens won't be able to have forex accounts overseas

Yeah, sounds like the EA I'm working on currently ... or, different versions of it over the past six months or so. And by "trail," you mean the stop moves up and down with the price, until it finally retraces enough to cover the "gap" and open the ...

SWB Martingale EA

Yeah, but whatever the hell happened to the study? Does anybody recall hearing about this? I don't. If anyone else had, I think we'd have heard about it a lot sooner than this. Or, maybe this is just par for the course, where they do stuff like this ...

CFTC NEW Document - Overseas Accounts OK?

Yeah, it may actually say something about the overseas restrictions somewhere? Have you tried reading it? It's 170 pages long!

CFTC Final Retail Forex Rules - 50:1 Leverage

So, this means the overseas restrictions on October 19th won't be going into effect? Sounds good. I might just open an account with IBFX Australia (primarily for hedging) and transfer the funds from my other IBFX accounts. Will see ...

CFTC NEW Document - Overseas Accounts OK?

Hey, check your PM.

SWB Martingale EA

Yeah, but I don't recall hearing about the study (until just a few days ago), or their soliciting comments from anyone, so I'm wondering when this was supposed to happen? It doesn't sound like anyone else has heard about it until recently either.

CFTC NEW Document - Overseas Accounts OK?

Yeah, but if you follow the link to the CTFC news release, it doesn't corroborate anything they're saying. So, one can only assume they got it from some other source. Either that or it's purely hearsay, and they're just saying it because they don't ...

CFTC NEW Document - Overseas Accounts OK?

Hey, I can't get the link in the original post to work ... The link in the second post works fine though.

CFTC NEW Document - Overseas Accounts OK?

Okay, I followed the link to the new CFTC release on your site but, it doesn't mention anything specifically about the rulings that were passed. Am I missing something here? I suppose maybe I better check the original link ... url Nope, doesn't ...

CFTC Final Retail Forex Rules - 50:1 Leverage

It was originally proposed as a study. Am not sure they have even done that yet ... albeit from the sounds of it, they have passed the new leverage restrictions. The two are not necessarily one and the same though.

CFTC Final Retail Forex Rules - 50:1 Leverage

I don't know which version you are using, but if you are trading more than one pair, that might account for this. I don't know if any of the versions are setup to calculate the correct price in this regard. I do know that while backtesting, after ...

CFTC Final Retail Forex Rules - 50:1 Leverage

Yeah, it's only a proposed study at this point.

CFTC Final Retail Forex Rules - 50:1 Leverage

50:1 for the majors is not too hard to swallow. Is that final or, are they still hashing it out?

CFTC Final Retail Forex Rules - 50:1 Leverage

What do you mean by counter trade? Do you mean closing out the first trade and opening a second trade at the reduced rate? because this is what MT4 will do. It also allows you to set SL and TP values. As for OCO and loop orders, I couldn't say?

Broker Recommendation PLEASE!

Okay, it looks like they're soliciting public comment and plan to conduct a study. So, nothing has really been determined yet. Hopefully it never will, at least in favor of restrictions.

Extraterritorial power of the Dodd-Frank Fin. Reg. Bill

Well, that would help to offset any margin calls depending on how closely they are correlated. It would sure beat the heck out of trying to run the whole affair on two separate accounts anyway. Thanks, will look into that. Oh, I currently have an ...

US citizens won't be able to have forex accounts overseas

How so? By hedging against the other account when it looks like it's beginning to swing? Yeah, that might work. The only problem with that is I have to maintain enough money in both accounts because technically it's not considered a hedge, at least ...
