sorry for such a delayed response, I didn't even know i had a message. Usually on my phone when i go to this forum. I used ACM and Swissquote. Now Swissquote owns ACM. I still have a savings and trading account with Swissquote, but i can not do Fx. Actually, the trading platform was not too good, but i had no problems transfering and retrieving funds. Both brokers were very fast. I was looking at Duscopy, but now i don't have any choice anyway, unless i trade under my wifes name))). But soon she will have a US passport too. Good luck.

i am in europe,, i was rather asking about the reliability of swiss brokers....i know about the US resident's restrictions
hope u manage through yr plan...cheers :-)

Anyone with a US passport can not use an over seas broker now, because of the frank dodd act. Part of the wall street reform via Obama. I think if your well funded maybe. But has to be a lot. I tried using my out of country residence and bank, but no go. only way is to give up your passport. I think i will open an account for my wife and trade from there.
