It seems there are quite a few ActFx brokers that have stopped taking on US Clients... Does anyone know what brokers that are using ActFx, are taking on US Clients still?
Much appreciated!
Happy Pipping!

Hey man. I contacted Act Forex, and they put me in touch with an "upstart" broker out of the British Virgin Islands that accepts US clients. There is a pretty low spread...EUR/USD is usually around 1.4 – 1.8 pips. I opened a practice account with them, but I'm unsure about the setup. Seems like every time I open a trade I start down about 7-10 USD...wondering if there's a cost per trade like with stocks? Or if the pip value is just different? I dont know. They do have some cool things like the whole "points system", etc. Anyway...

| By the way...when I contacted my affiliate manager with [broker's name] (I think her name is Debbie), she told me that they are pursuing some regulation where they can accept US, UK, and Cyprus clients again, and that I shouldnt remove the [broker's name] banners from my site, as it should be resolved in the next few months. Do you think that is truth? Or just a con to keep me sending traffic their way?

I have had nothing but problems with [broker's name] ... their support is absolutely horrible and I just dont trust them as far as I can throw a stick.

Yeah it's unfortunate. I used [broker's name] when I got started and was shocked by how poorly they handle support issues. I'm with another broker, and I'm blown away by how great their support is.
Happy Pipping!
