There are none. Anyone offering >100:1 is virtually guaranteed to be a bucket shop broker. I cannot think of a single ECN that offers > 50:1.

Recent law changes prohibit leverage of > 50/1 for US based currencies pairs , provided you have a US based account otherwise I dunno .

Oanda is one of the few that I believe allows you to change leverage on the fly. Meaning for your account. Most as stated previously are fixed at 50:1 for majors and 20:1 for exotics and not changeable.

IMHO - you should be looking for a broker that would allow you to lower your leverage. There was a time when some brokers (as in make you broker - think about it) offered 400:1. Quick path to blown account.

Hi;
In my point of view Oanda or Saxo Bank is way to go

Why would you look for a leverage of 1:100 ? Do you want to blow your account as quickly as possible?

I use 50:1 on Oanda. I would actually like to use greater leverage. However, I don't trust any broker that would allow it. Oanda is the only non-ecn that I trust.

Many have awful reputations but there are actually a few decent, regulated brokers offering 1:100, 1:200, and one even offering 1:500 depending on your account size.
