Hi, I was just wondering if anyone by any chance knows a prop firm or any other kind of trading/investment firm that might hire an intern over this summer. I have 2 years of expirence in trading, but I am little on the young side. The intrnship does not have to pay me, I am just looking for more experience and guidence toward trading in (equities, options, futures, forex or bonds). All of the help would be greatly appreciated if someone would recommend a company that are willing to give out internships. Thanks in advance
Check out the websites of the big I-banks, UBS, JP, Goldman. They post a lot of internships for college undergrads. Also if your college offers access to Monstertrak, they post a lot of internships on that.
Kastro i have about 6K in my account, and unfortunatly I am going to college next year, I am finishing up with my high school this month, still 17.
I was joking my friend. Only 17, I would wait a year or 2 before trying to get into an internship. Go to school, and you should be able to make contacts with the school you are in. -Kastro
It would not hurt to hang out in front of the NYSE or NYMEX and just introduce yourself to a few Clerks/Members. A few months on the floor is a valuable experience. Even if you just get lunch and deliver tickets.
Well I daytrade my dads account becouse he lets me once in a while only with his strategy thou, but dont u think there is at least one firm that needs an intern or how they say coffee-maker.
With the standards on Wall st. you need a degree in Math to serve people coffee! Start school, you will be amazed at the contacts the career center can make for you. -Kastro
