How Do You Become a Trader?


For a investment bank?

Ah, how do you get "hired" as a trader.

Different question from the one you originallay asked.

don't have a clue

You ... trade?

A ton of hard work. Graduate with a Finance degree and possibly and MBA from an Ivy League school. Then maybe you can.

If u don't hv an Ivy BA/BS or an MBA, then I would recommend starting off w/ a smaller broker firm. They'll put you on as an assistance broker where you could start off w/ $25k + commission. ( I assume you've already pass the series 7 license). Once you've gain the experience and make sure you document your progress (records of performance), you can apply to work for one of the major banks. I could of went this route, but decided to go into analysis instead because I didn't like the grind.

take your time and go to the market and see how trading is been carried out and ask questions from them

Join an investment bank and start as an assistant.

first you have to be a bank robber.
