    Is it difficult to get Series 7 licensing?
     
  4. LOL....since every retail stockbroker has passed the exam, how tough do you think it could really be, LOL.

    Seriously, it is tedious, but there are several ways to cram for it.

    If you study for 2 weeks (conservatively) , you can easily ace it.

    Its not that bad at all. Its actually pretty good to get a general knowledge of things.

    What firm is going to sponsor him?
    He is not a US citizen and does not live in the US?
    I believe he is a High School kid in Europe.
     
  7. We have S7 traders worldwide. Many have taken the exam here, many outside the Country. We sponsor all of our traders, of course.

    (My Compliance Officer is very diligent about which countries we can, and which ones we cannot).
