I am an international student and I really love trading and I do trading too with around 100k buying power. I interviewed with a couple of trading firms and it seems they do not really recruit international students because they worry about sponsoring for visa(actually, it only does something GOOD to employers who recruit international students, according to the lawyers who held info session in my college.) I am wondering if any firms in the US would like to take international students. Otherwise I will have to go back to my home country, which is fine, but normally those trading firms there only give you around 40-60% and less buying power, which means you earn less. Thanks for responding.
there are some but you'll need 5,000 to start. try http://nevisgroupllc.com/. they work with JC Trading, one of the big sponsors of this website. email charles@jctradinggroup.com and tell them david scheper sent you and you should be able to get the same deal i got. good luck!
