    They said I couldn't create subaccounts in different currencies without an advisor account. I'm thinking of opening an FFA account then merging with my account. Is this a violation of the rules?I dont plan on trading for somebody else anytime soon
     
  2. In a word - no. I use a ffa to trade traditional and roth ira + regular margin account all in my name.
