You will see that disclaimer with many US forex brokers. As senaka7 said, look for a reputable firm with minimal or no debt on their balance sheet and Fidelity Bond insurance. Fidelity bond insurance protects your assets from various types of fraud, theft, and embezzlement, however it does not protect against bankruptcy. This is why you want a firm with minimal or no debt. To the best of my knowledge, FXCM is the only dealer that current shows clients their balance sheet (unaudited). They have zero debt and Fidelity 14 bonds.

Regardless, I would keep minimal funds with any broker.
