IB: Trading American Markets from Asia

I don't uderstand why some American think they are relocating
to moon, when they want move aboard and always DSL issue comes up?
I used to trade in-room on 1MB DSL for $20 for the room
and $2 for DSL connection per day. I will bet you won't get
such deal even in USA in a hotel.
If you have fast connection in that country, doesn't matter
how far you are from US. Again I will bet you will not have
any losing trade or delayed quotes because of your connection
I use IB and trade from Japan and have no problems. Nana Trader is right; from my experience in traveling throughout Asia, there is no discernible difference in DSL from country to country. You have to worry more about what level of service you receive and pricing.
However, you say you are moving to Asia and that is a very general statement. Similar to me saying that I am moving back to the Americas. Depending on the specific country, there could be very different comparisons.

I live in Asia and use IB and trade just about everything they offer. No problems whatsoever.
On the topic of connection speed, just about every country over here is just as technologically advanced as the USA. Any1 that thinks otherwise has not been over here.
Thailand Dial-up is very slow for active trading, it connects
at 26kbps to 28kbps that makes loging to hotmail account
so difficult most times.
I trade with Xoomtrade which DSL recommanded for it and
i even could not log to my account iwth dialup. You will be
fine if overnight or swing trading with dialup.
Are you among those "some Americans"? take it easy
I don't understand why "some Asian" thinks that since they have a fast connection, that everybody else does.
