Open Bank Account in Canada or USA to Trade Forex and Future

TDBank does in Canada (but does not in the US) but only for a limited amount of time, same 6 month as RBC. No outgoing wires during that period permitted. If no sufficient proof of residence will be provided by the end of the 6 month window then the account will be closed. Which part do you want to disagree with so stubbornly? Do your fuxxing homework before you post your BS.

Of course they don't.
Tdbank Canada also doesn't.

According to Zzzz.

You pulled those limitations out of your ass, your main source of information on this forum, it must be a wonderland for psychiatrists in there.
 
Those are completely incomplete information that is provided in those links. Go to the actual online application and click through if you don't believe me.

And it is obvious to everyone but you when you read through those customer service rep posts you linked to that they are on purpose not addressing the residence issue, either they don't know or are deceptive in not wanting to be forced to say no.

No, it's your claim (lie), you link us to that.
We're used now to you boasting of dozens of studies supporting your point, yet not beeing able to link a single one.
 
Fuxx you Luis, do your own work. I am not your daddy. If I was I would advise you to stop drinking. What do you know about this topic other than you sitting in your basement and doing Google searches? And then you pick misleading information off the net, nowhere have those reps clearly answered the question and said that no proof of residence is needed. Have you lived in Canada? Have you dealt with Canadian banks? I don't think so. And that I stated the truth about all the banks I listed in Hongkong (definitely not complete but still a comprehensive list) is just driving you nuts. Not sure why The only explanation is that you are a T-R-O-L-L.

Let me improve your ET experience though, you are from now on on my ignore. I don't wanna waste time again such as in this and related threads going back and forth with you on issues you have no clue about. I did see couple informed posts by you in a few trading related threads which kept me from putting you on ignore much earlier but when you are angry with your trolled subjects you just turn into a smelly, overrated, stinky French ass. I have no need for that. Good riddance pal.

Thank you Zzz1, that was a convincing and well documented argument.
Now i'm sure all readers of this thread will believe your claim that they can't open an account as a visitor in Canada.
 
I edit out the rest of you post.

Easy solution because you mention your wife is a Canadian citizen and lives in Alberta with the kids...

Just become a legal resident assuming you haven't committed any crimes.

As soon as you arrive in Canada, start your immigration paperwork while you have visitor status. The Canada government want's to keep families together especially when children are involve. Your paperwork WILL go to the front of other immigrants that do not have children that are Canadian citizens.

I don't know how long you'll have to wait to become a legal resident. I have some friends that it took 2 years, others 1 year and some say it took 9 months. It took myself about 16 months.

My wife & Kids have student permit and currently study at Canada, I have a visitor what expire end of my passport period. I can stay in Canada up to 6 months per year ( can extend a year), If I want stay more longer I have to change my visa to open work permit based on my wife study permit but I still have a job in Vietnam and not yet stop. Therefore, I definitely can open bank account in Canada when I visit there. However, I want to fund and withdrawn my trading account from my bank account in Canada for cost effectiveness (hope everyone understand my situation) but I am not for sure it is OK or any difficult when I do funding and withdrawn from my Canada bank account.

IB will open my account (register at my home country) at USA entities currency base CAD and I will fund IB account via my Canada bank account. The same to open account at Oanda at Australia entities or other brokers if needed.

However, Alberta restrict Albertan trade Forex, so I need carefully to find a smart solution otherwise I will be the same boat with Albertan who Forex traders are quite difficult to find a reputable and safe broker that accept to open their account.

I think all I do compliance with any rule and regulation and dont have any legal issue.
 
The utility bill thing is just a simple but pretty effective way to verify residence, it works most of the time. It takes some criminal energy to fake those and if I remember correctly if using such faked documents for fraud purposes penalties in the US are very steep.

That may not deter certain terrorist elements but then the government does not rely on utility bills to screen whether to grant someone a visa or not or whether they make it past the immigration counter or not.
I didn't say the govt relied on those to get past immigration. They're already past the immigration counter by the time this becomes possible to circumvent some rule.

And of course it takes 'criminal energy" to "forge" a document. That's kinda inferred by the context of my post.
My whole point was that the system in place now that requires utility bills to verify residence is completely impotent thwarting whatever it is they hope to thwart. Its just dumb.

Sooo...pretty weak retort ZZ. Gonna have to score you a bogey on that one. You must have been worn out from all your arguing by the time you got to me. It does look like you had a pretty grueling session this afternoon; even for you. What's you're blood pressure like btw? Be honest.

Lol !
Sure, let the beast rest a bit. It is now regrouping, getting ready to argue AML regulations have made it impossible for visitors on a temporary visa to buy eggs in Europe, hence the security services are so edgy over this Easter week end.

Weak, well yes because I agree with you on this, mostly. I never meant my previous post to be contradicting your points. I just think that certain individuals will always find ways to freeload and trick the system, for their advantage and the disadvantage of the majority. Regulators and governments always have to make a tradeoff decision, which is to find a balance between excess interference vs being too restraint.
