well I need to get NASD licenses but I do not know a firm that can sponsor me. I am interested in the 7, 63,65, 55. How do you recommend about getting these licenses. I really don't want to trade, I just need a sponsor and somewhere to hold it. Is there any firms that I can put some money down and sponsor me?
Why do you want the licenses? The 66 combines the 63 and 65, fyi. I have them all and they're boring as hell to study for and worthless unless you want to be a broker. Even if you do want to be a broker, I would go the OTC route, as that is where all of the growth seems to be these days, especially in energy.
they will sponsor you (obviously). if you're thinking that you'll be a better candidate for hire because you'll already have the licenses, that's probably not the case.
I had my 7, 63, 55 and 25 (NYSE floor lic), but they all expired earlier this year... do I have to take all of these over again?
