I don’t get it, it doesn’t make sense transfer clients from a country to another without any existing reason, given the trouble that implies. Is there any new regulation US offices have to fill regarding clients that UK hasn’t?

Hi FirePips! May I ask what's been your experience with Dukascopy? How long have you been trading with them!?

Thanks!

Alpari-UK will not take US clients.
I already checked into it when the NFA crammed the no hedging rule
down our throats.
I expected it to be an easy process to transfer from the US office to
the UK office.
Nope.
Alpari-UK won't even consider taking US clients in spite of the NFA rulings.
So, I've been talking to Gallant FX.
Based in the US, but not members of the NFA.
They also have no intentions of joining them either...

Thats ridiculous. Do they even attempt to offer a "reason"?

No reason given.
It's not a UK regulatory reason because other US / UK brokers
are transferring US clients to their UK offices...
