I had to remove Boston Trading and Research form the my Forex brokers list, because judging from their website BTRFX is no longer a retail broker. Now they offer managed Forex accounts and are performing quite well (according to BarclayHedge). Personally, I wouldn’t trust them too much, because they don’t seem to be registered with any U.S. or international regulator. According to some Forex related forums’ posts (babypips.com and kreslik.com) their management is unclear and they don’t look very honest. Anyway, if you are feeling lucky you can definitely try investing with BTRFX managed fund as their returns are quite high.

Boston Trading and Research is a very new Forex broker which site was opened just this year. They offer reasonable trading conditions including MetaTrader 4 platform, PayPal account funding and $500 minimum account size. BTRFX also seems a reliable company, but their quite enigmatic website may turn off some traders. Boston Trading and Research is not registered with NFA, but some interested traders already made an electronic petition for BTRFX to join NFA as soon as possible:

…We therefore petition BTRFX of Boston ie (http://www.btrfx.com/contact.php and sales@btrfx.com) to do the right thing and apply for registration with the NFA! And if and when they do so, then and only then will we, the undersigned, will happily arrange to set up and open our Managed Forex Accounts with Boston Trading and Research, LLC in Boston, MA with their phenomenal forex trader!

Overall, it’s good broker for MT4 traders interested in PayPal deposit/withdraw option.
