I'm looking for advice from some experienced traders. I am a recent grad of a top 25 university in economics. I want to be a trader. What do I need to do? What kind of firm do you recommend I apply to? What type of firm did you work for and what would you do differently? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
paul, do you wish to put some of your own capital up, or simply work on a trading desk for a bank/financial concern ?? most of the traders here work for/with "prop" firms where a degree is fairly insignificant. hope this helps. best, surf
