I will try to keep a list of options for Forextrading with Bitcoins here (not Bitcoin trading CFDs, like 500plus)
It is still dificult to trade Forex using Bitcoins; i'll explain for the options
----always google informations before depositing on Forex brokers. one place i can recomend for research is: http://www.forexpeacearmy.com/
please correct any wrong information + feel free to give extra information, so I can add it

this is a very big and known broker, and it is regulated
having very good reviews over the internet.
bitcoin denominated accounts for Forex trading + Bitcoin trading
[b]-1broker[/b]
https://1broker.com/m/r.php?i=229
from a Bitcoiner. seams to be very correct, check the thread in this forum. i've allready used it last year and it's trustworthy
problem: it's a CFD (doesn't have to be a problem if you know what this means); doesn't have a professional platform
[b]-SimpleFX[/b]
https://simplefx.com/?sfx-r=fb0f0470-5ed7-40d7-a118-3150382b79ab
this is a new broker. It seams it was created allready with Bitcoin in mind, but is also a "normal-fiat-broker". bitcoin denominated accounts

this is a well known BTC futures broker. They are in the market for quite some time now. Recently they started to offer CFDs: forex, shares, indexes

this is manly focussed on trading shares, but you can also buy BTC and Fiat with your colateral BTC (inside the system, accounts are BTC based only). There is a competition starting on the 23rd of November.

not realy a Forex broker, but you can hold all kind of fiat (and other like gold) with your BTC there (heding)

[b]-FxOpen[/b]

Mt4
without a doubt, the biggest and best known option here. totaly trustworthy
being BTC-E's MT4 server provider and having cryptoaccounts they change BTC on their broker using BTC-E exchangerate. the problem is, they add a huge spread to it (rate only visible after signing up). and trading Forex on BTC based cryptoaccount is not possible.
[b]-TradersWay [/b]
http://tradersway.com/?ib=1041737
MT4, cTrader
this is not a very known broker, but best way to get to know a broker is always http://www.forexpeacearmy.com/public/review/www.tradersway.com ; imo: avaliation is quite good, they respond to the issues (normal that they occure). and they have a page regarding security on they site http://www.tradersway.com/about_us/safety_of_funds/?ib=1041737. as always: use google to research on your own.
here comes the exiting part: they charge no fees and add no artificial spread to Bitcoin deposits. they, and this is new to me, have a very good solution which is they sell our coins on the market (BTC-E) after we deposit. check out more in this post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=716530.msg9213721#msg9213721
I will test this broker soon, since (asuming they're claims are real) they apear to be the best option in terms of what this thread is analysing. I'll probably add my expirience here soon.
US costumers are allowed, not sure about the other brokers, I know that FxOpen doesn't allow them

so they are not accepting BTC atm? or never again?..I wont even ask more.
7/11/2014: asked them again, they do acept BTC again, but they wont tell me the exchange rate.
they always send me this link https://secure.instaforex.com/en/deposit/bitcoin-preview?x=JEBP "in order to know the process and rate for Bitcoin itself."
but you have to have a verified account to see it there. I tried to get a verified acount, but my documents were rejected (btw, they passed at FxOpen, Tradersway and others)

this uses bips.me, therefore only deposits...the only broker option showing exchange-rate to $ (on bips.me)
problem: this is a very young and unknown broker. read here for example: http://www.trade2win.com/boards/spread-betting-cfds/184740-xcfd.html
my personal test with the $30 bonus I've posted here: http://www.trade2win.com/boards/spread-betting-cfds/184740-xcfd-5.html#post2357096
noone seams to ever have testet withdraws
only has a semi-professional platform.

[quote]Thank you for your email.
Please note that if you will deposit by using Bitcoin our financial provider will convert it to USD so we will receive USD and we will credit your MT4 account in USD. Please note that the Bitcoin is not a tradable instrument.
In the case you would like to withdraw your funds we will be able to refund you only in USD.
The exchange rate will be provided by our financial provider during the deposit process and you will be able to see how many USD is the equivalent of each Bitcoin you will deposit.
There is no artificial spread and also there is no fees for depositing using Bitcoin.
As soon as you will make a deposit you are kindly requested to send us a screenshot with the deposit details.
Kind Regards,
Aleksandra Janicka
