    Hello Everyone,

    I am new to the forum.

    I and algorithmic trader looking for a prop firm that supports remote traders.

    In my country we are not allowed to send money overseas for margin trading or else I would have used my own funds.

    Most of the Prop firms have a evaluation period with simulation which is very logical but in my case I have done enough testing and trust my systems fully so it will be just waste of time so I am willing to give a backup guarantee of the pre decided drawdown with my own money.

    This will provide the firm with no loss scenario.

    I would like to request the members to help me get intouch with any Prop firm that will be interested.


    Thanks

    In India you are not allowed to open a margin account in the USA? I have not heard about that restriction. Do you have a link to that law I may read?

    Hi Robert

    This was done in wake of Forex scams few years ago.

    https://m.rbi.org.in//Scripts/NotificationUser.aspx?Id=10192&Mode=0#1

    Please refer to Rule A (5)



    5. All other transactions which are otherwise not permissible under FEMA and those in the nature of remittance for margins or margin calls to overseas exchanges/ overseas counterparty are not allowed under the Scheme.

    If you’re unable to transfer money outside the country, how do you envision handling things should you lose money?

    I do know someone that runs a systematic prop firm, they only hire remotely. Could you elaborate on your product universe, capital usage, latency requirements, turnover rates, TC sensitivity etc?

    - no proof of what you have traded and as you say your country does not allow sending money overseas for any such margin trading then how do you proposes you will send the money required for "backup guarantee"
    and how would you explain the incoming money to your govt!
    - there are already Prop firms outposts in your country like futures first etc why dont you try them first so you wont have the FX issue
    - Being secretive will not help you get support

    Something does not add up !
