What do you mean by "country"?


Do you mean citizenship OR residency?


I'm a citizen from a banned country, but I have been residing in Malaysia for more than 10 years.

All my bank accounts are in Malaysia.


So can I open micro account and deposit via credit card?

Exclamation New Account Question

I was denied the "priveledge" of a Micro Account because of a Bankruptcy on my credit file from a very long time ago
My question is this:
Is there a certain timeframe one has to wait, or will I be out of luck forever??

Any info on Lithuania

Dear Sirs,
it is really a bit strange that Lithuanians are not allowed to fund the account by CC. We always get a reply that "in the future". Could you finally and openly indicate WHEN or pls tell that it means NEVER, so we can search for another FX trading service provider.
I appreciate your feedback soonest possible.

I have also been refused...

Are there any plans being worked on to allow Quebec residents to trade through FXCM micro? FXCM micro really is one of a kind, and its hard to find other brokers with similar offerings (25$ min, 1:400 leverage, tight spreads,no commission and 1k lots)

I got a message saying I could not be identified if I think its an error resubmit a new application. That is probably because I selected VA as my state since I did not see mines listed.

Angry apply as international client

Hi.

How can I apply for a micro account as an international client? I tried it about 20 times this weekend and didn't get to the right website. Here is what i did:

1. I deleted internet files (cache, browser history, etc) and restarted firefox.
2. I went to the following website: www.forexmicrolot.com/open-an-account-international.jsp (screenshot fxcm1.jpg)
3. I clicked on "APPLY ONLINE" and got to the application website for standard accounts for domestic clients (see URL on the screenshot fxcm2.jpg, different from link location from frist page).
4. Then I clicked on "Online Trading Agreement" and got to the application website for standard accounts for international clients (FXCM3.jpg) (should be the same page as by clicking on "apply online" (have same link location), but I got to different websites).


So, what did I wrong? Or is the micro account no more available for international clients?


Thanks in advance!
