Hi - quick question to the Non US traders that have accounts with a US broker, namely IB, tradestation, lightspeed etc.

Is your account protected under FINRA, where do you stand if the broker goes bust? I imagine as a non US resident you would have no say in getting your funds back or is this not the case at all.
 
nothing is protected against anything

getting back your money from an bancrupt corp takes years and additional money
