What other platforms are supported for Forex trading for US Citizens thru C2?

Hi Ynrao24:

For US customers the only Forex broker left is TradePro, according to this list:

This Oanda thing is going to create lots of problems for US Forex Trade Leaders.

If I try to open TradePro Forex account its pointing to Oanda only

For some reason these 2 brokers seem to be connected, not sure why.

Yes, so we don’t have any other option left for US customers

That seems to be the case unfortunately, even though you can still enter the C2 trading signals manually (no autotrading) and bypass the Oanda restrictions.

I just spoke with tradePro, they are still supporting collective2.

for forex trading???

can you please share more details on this

When I try to open the account its routing to Oanda website from below URL

https://tradeprofutures.com/open-an-account/

I have clicked on “Open an Account Online” Under Open a FOREX Account

What Terence is probably saying is that you need to contact/phone them directly, and they will do the transfer for you.

I contacted TradePro and this is what I heard back, I’ve emailed Trey, sharing here if helpful!

[TradePro Chat] "Hello, we were blind sided by this as well and we are looking for an alternative solution. Please email me your contact information and we will let you know when we have a solution:

Trey@tradeprofutures.com

Please include phone number as well. We are an introducing broker for multiple clearing firms and one of them is OANDA. We are working with some other FX clearing firms to see if we can come up with a solution for US customers."

Today I received a message from my subscriber. Trey contacted me today, he said that C2 and Forex com have an agreed relationship replacing Oanda and that they are building out the API now.

In general, according to the current situation. No panic. Let’s find an alternative solution, an alternative option. I’m sure he will. It is the matter of time. Be patient.

Good news, thanks ARK.
