• Please try to select the correct prefix when making a new thread in this folder.

    Discuss is for general discussions of a financial company or issues related to companies.

    Info is for things like "Has anyone heard of Company X?" or "Is Company X legit or not?"

    Compare is for things like "Which of these 2 (or more) companies is best?"

    Searching is for things like "Help me pick a broker" or "What's the best VPS out there for trading?"

    Problem is for reporting an issue with a company. Please don't just scream "CompanyX is a scam!" It is much more useful to say "I can't withdraw my money from Company X" or "Company Y is not honoring their refund guarantee" in the subject line.
    Keep Problem discussions civil and lay out the facts of your case. Your goal should be to get your problem resolved or reported to the regulators, not to see how many insults you can put into the thread.

    More info coming soon.

U.S. ECN/STP FX Broker that accepts IRA accounts for FX trading?

Ever since FXCM was shut down, I have been trying to find another FX broker that caters to US clients and allows trading using IRA accounts. Preferably this would be an ECN FX broker. To my knowledge there are currently only two left:

- FOREX.com (GAIN Capital) - Dealing Desk (not ECN)
- OANDA - Dealing Desk (not ECN)

The others I have checked that do not allow IRA trading are:

- Thinkorswim (TOS)
- Interactive Brokers
- ProRealtime Trader (not available for US clients)

Does anyone know of any other?
 
My vote - sit back and wait a few months to see what happens to the Dodd-Frank rules which make offshore trading so difficult. There's a very good chance those rules will, at minimum, be relaxed in the near future.
