Quote from Pekelo:
Can't you open an account from India in the US? Is it against the Indian laws?
If not, that's what I would do in your place:
Find an Indian American whom you trust and who lives in the US. A relative or friend could be the best.
Open an account under his/her name, and trade it. He/she would get a few bucks from you for the inconvenience of extra trouble at taxtime or a % of your profits. It would be still much cheaper than trying to trade from India...
If he/she visits India a few times a year profits/funds can be moved in cash personally...
Thanks a lot Pekelo. Those are some intelligent suggestions, no doubt about that.
