I did used to enjoy Eddie Izzards stand-up, but since he's got all 'political' he seems like a bit of a div.

Because I like using FXCM - I like their platform and generally speaking I like the company. I just wanted some opinions on them

Thank you very much for that info. You've put my mind at ease.

I've just spoken with FXCM's Chinese branch who have said FX trading is not illegal & they've not heard of any problems with it. In fact, they have quite a few clients resident in china.

Do you have any links to anything regarding that? I've been searching online but not found anything that says it's illegal

Hi, I'm from the UK (English) and relocating to China for a few years. Can't actually speak Mandarin yet, getting a tutor when we're out there. Where you from?

Hello all I've really been enjoying using FXCM's platform on a demo account and am considering exclusively using them. Everything seems great, fast order execution decent spread and great customer service. My only concern is that they were recently fined about £2m by the NFA (NFA levies...

I also forgot to ask if it would make more sense tax wise to register as self employed or as a company...

Great. So there are no restrictions on how / when I can trade? Will i just be able to open an account with a broker here and still be able to use it in China?

Hello there, I'm moving to china (Guangzhou) at the end of October and was wondering if anybody knew anything about forex trading laws there? I've been finding it quite hard to get any info on it Thanks
