Wiring out to fund overseas trading account

[Dep714]

I have tried to wire money to fund an overseas stock/forex trading account but was denied by two banks in Thailand (Bangkok Bank and K-Bank). I'm not sure if this is a national law or if it's specific to the banks. Was wondering if anyone has successfully wired out from Thailand to overseas trading accounts. Perhaps it's possible with a foreign bank with branches in Thailand? What bank did you use and how are the fees? Or if I use a Thai bank, is there another "reason/purpose" of wire that will be approved that doesn't require any documentation?

 

I heard it can be done by Western Union but their fees are crazy.

If the money was earned here, I think they want it spent here. If it was earned overseas, then proof of that might help.
