Trading NSE futures (India)

[brokershopping]

Are citizens of the US allowed to trade futures on the NSE?

I just pulled up some charts of the nifty50 and some other stuff via my IB demo account, but I can't trade them due to account permission problems. I have the appropriate permissions checked in account settings, so I am wondering if US traders are excluded.

The charts look like great traders, though.

Currently you have to be a resident or an NRI (Non Resident Indian), however, customers can trade the Nifty at IB on the SGX.

you can trade the E-mini S&P CNX Nifty (Nifty 50) Futures on the CME:

Thank you for pointing that out.

All three contracts are offered through IB.
