The brokers below hold a registration in the United States according to our research records. They are grouped by what has actually been confirmed: a registration checked against the public register of the CFTC and the NFA on a stated day comes first, then registrations recorded but not yet checked, then registrations carrying a register status this site does not interpret, then any the register shows as no longer current.
Who is on this page: Every broker record holding a registration in the United States (US), whether or not it has been checked against the register yet.
Ordered by how much of the broker's own published terms we have checked, then alphabetically — this is not a quality ranking.
31 of the 198 broker records we hold qualify for this page.
Each broker below holds at least one registration in this jurisdiction that was read off the regulator's own public register on the date shown. A card's chips are the registrations we hold for that broker, wherever they are held and whatever the register says of them, so a chip on this card may be neither in this jurisdiction nor current — the label on it says which.

Yes, but only through a broker registered with the CFTC and a member of the NFA. Offshore brokers that accept US clients without that registration are operating outside the rules, and you would have no recourse through US channels if something went wrong.
The CFTC caps retail Forex leverage at 50:1 on major pairs and 20:1 on minors. It is a consumer-protection rule, not a broker limitation — every compliant US broker applies the same cap, so leverage is not a point of difference when comparing them.
Registration is expensive and the capital requirements are high, so far fewer firms serve US retail traders than serve Europe or Australia. How many appear here depends on that and on how many of our research records carry a US registration at all; the line above the list gives that count against every record we hold.
Yes. US accounts must close the oldest position in a currency pair first and cannot hold opposing positions in the same pair. Strategies that rely on hedging or on partial exits in a chosen order need reworking before they transfer to a US account.
The one broker above whose own published terms we hold. A cell reading not checked means nobody has read that figure off the broker's pages yet — it is not a finding that the broker lacks it.

Each summary below is generated from the records on this page and nothing else.
Two dated sources sit behind this page: our research records of each broker's registrations, and the pages the broker publishes itself. How much of that was confirmed on a regulator's own public register is counted in the paragraph below, from the registrations this page actually prints — the label beside each one says which it is. The statutory retail cap quoted for the US (50:1 on major pairs, CFTC Regulation 5.9 with NFA Financial Requirements Section 12) comes from the rulebooks themselves, not from a broker's marketing. Nothing here is measured: we have not funded a US account, so there is no execution, slippage or withdrawal figure on this page.
Our research hub holds 198 broker records for this site. Of the 36 registrations listed above, 32 were read on the regulator's own public register on the date shown. Of the rest, 4 are on record and not yet confirmed on a register — the label beside each one says which. Each one links to the register entry. The 5 figures on this page beyond those registrations were transcribed from a page the broker publishes them on, and each one links to that page with the date somebody read it. Where a date is old, treat the figure as old — brokers change pricing and licences without telling us.
US traders have fewer choices but stronger protections. CFTC registration is an expensive bar to clear, which is most of why so few firms serve US retail traders at all — but a registration is a floor and not a verdict, and what this page checked for a given firm is the label beside that firm's own entry, not a property of the list.
