Need advice on brokers, small account and time of day to trade

I have been studying for a few months but I haven’t started trading my live account yet.

I am looking for advice on the following:

  1. Brokers. I am in the US and would like a US broker. I currently have one in Europe, but I am concerned how taxes will work.
  2. Best time to trade. I am in the Mountain timezone so the London/New York overlap is from about 3:00 AM to 6:00 AM, which is hard on me physically. Are there any major pairs that are good to trade later in the day? Someone mentioned AUD/NZD (I know it isn’t a major) on another thread, what is the best time to trade that pair?
  3. What lot size would be good for $1,500 account?

you need at least $2000 to trade even forex or any instruments on margin for that matter

If you want a US broker you will have access to limited leverage. Will that work for you?

In order to know about the taxes, contact your CPA who will guide you better.
