New NFA regulations

Because of new NFA regulations, residents of the United States are no longer able to access webinars from DailyFX Forex or any live videos. So i was thinking is it possible to use proxy to watch it? If it is, could anybody recommend any application?

Thanks

Where did you hear that?

It’s true, they’ve said it themselves. I’d use a proxy server located outside of US.

Have they given a reason why? I’d be curious to know if perhaps it has something to do with the trading recommendations made or the videos not having the right disclaimer included seeing as DailyFX is an FXCM operation.

Could you share what software you use please?

Yes, it has something to do with trading recommendation. That’s why the dailyFX suggest using twitter to connect with them now.

Hey rhodytrader,

DailyFX has an explanation on the website here Forex @ DailyFX - Videos and Webinars for Viewers in the USA . I don’t have any further information beyond what is written on DailyFX unfortunately.

Try TOR (TOR bundle, TOR Vidalia bundle) or just google TOR proxy software - its one of the best choices for me

PS. you can also configure your MT4 “to be” outside US with TOR :wink:

why does dailyfx kiss the nfa butt anyway, are they based in the U.S. ?

Thanks. I’ll try that

Hmm, socialism is growing nicely. If that continues, you need to ask the NFA and file a bunch of forms in a few years if you wanna play penny poker at home, lol. :smiley:

Alright: here’s another thread that I just KNOW I should NOT be getting involved in or expressing my opinions but ‘you know me’!!! LOL!!! ‘Do not touch - HOT SURFACE’!!! LOL!!!

Could somebody give me some good reasons WHY US Citizens have such issues with the NFA and Dodd-Frank??? I’m curious to know for a number of reasons and then, assuming I don’t get ‘shot in the back with arrows’, I’d like to share my viewpoint on the subject.

Regards,

I don’t like anyone telling me how I can or can’t trade or what I can or can’t do with my own money or what I can or can’t look at on the internet. Fck the bstrds

Well: I see you feel quite strongly about this!!! LOL!!!

But I’d like some more input (let’s just call this a bit of a ‘study’ of mine shall we and THEN we’ll get to the ‘arrows in my back’ thing)!!! LOL!!!

Regards,

Dale.

In the US one of the things we take seriously is the idea of personal freedom. At least I do.
Why should a bunch of people in Washington with motivations that are not my own make decisions for me. Are the smarter then me. Is my decision to trade with 200:1 leverage going to harm someone else? If I watch a video on the internet about someones market ideas am I putting someone else at risk? What if the NFA blocked your site. It could happen the way things are going. Do you think your content is going to cause harm to a US trader. Well its not up to you its up to the NFA.

I am not saying that the restrictions placed on US traders are not a good way to trade. I am saying that the fact that someone else made the choice for me is bad. I dont know what the motivations are that drive the recent restrictions on US traders but to think that someone in Washington is just looking out for me is not the case. Someone is gaining power or money or both at the expense of my freedom.

Ironically, you can still walk into any casino with whatever size cash amount you choose, be it one dollar, or a million, or more, and frivolously throw it all away without the NFA, CFTC, SEC, or anyone else even knowing…

The more laws and regulations there are, the closer to anarchy we get.

Better, better, better and more ‘meaty’ explanations and insights. Thanks.

Listen up: PLEASE don’t ‘get me wrong’ here. I’m most certainly NOT trying to ‘pick a fight’ or be ‘contraversial’. There really is a good reason why I’m asking which, once I’ve gotten enough opinions (in my opinion), I’ll share with you. I’ve just seen one or two things ‘happen’ in this business of late (and one of them ‘happened’ to me not too long ago) but I will ‘reveal all’ and my reasoning for asking (and don’t worry: I’m not doing a ‘Tymen Wortel’ ‘thing’ here i.e. keeping everybody in ‘suspense’ and keeping them ‘hanging on my every word’ because it gives me some ‘morbid pleasure’ I assure you)!!! LOL!!!

Regards,

Dale.

Well the video is back
