I need to find broker while living overseas

My current broker is really a pain in the ass. Im currently living in korea and there are so many restrictions as to what i can and cannot do. For instance i cant trade on american stocks and short sell as a foreigner living here. Im wondering what US broker or any english broker allows overseas people to open an account? Im looking for one that doesnt give me much hassle and is easy to open an account with living overseas. thank you

You can wire out 50k USD per year from Korea for certain. If you're an ex-pat and have an account overseas,you can of course xfer directly from that account. I'm sure there are ways to do more for investment purposes but you will have to check locally and with your bank for further info.

Just to be sure there is no confusion. You do not need to have a USD bank account or fund in USD at IB. The 50K is an equivalent number. We accept deposits in many currencies USD, JPY, HKD, RMB, EUR, AUD, SGD are just a few (KRW is not one though).
