Simply put, SwiftTrade's Traders trade a company's capital (not their own) on the stock market. Traders are equipped with state-of-the-art computers and software that allows them direct access to the markets via a number of Electronic Communications Networks, or ECN's. Traders will generally buy and sell one security (stock), making lightening fast decisions in a matter of seconds to capture the "spread" or the difference between asking price and the bidding price of that security. How does it work? Each Trader is connected to a Market (NASDAQ, NYSE, AMEX, CME, LSE etc.), and trades a single stock. Traders have three basic resources on hand to make lightening-fast buy and sell decisions: The Level II Window: This window shows the size and value of all the bids and offers (in left and right columns, respectively) on a particular stock, top-down from highest to lowest. This allows traders to see what every other trader is bidding, or offering. When a trader puts in a bid or offer, it will appear on this screen. Watching a Level II screen on an active stock is spectacular, with buys and sells happening in less than seconds. Charting: The charting window shows the progressive ups and downs of a stock's price, as well as the volume (number of shares) traded. By watching charts, traders can pick up on patterns than aid in making buy or sell decisions. The "Squawk Box": This is essentially a PA system that connects the trading floor to an actual person, standing on the floor at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, where Futures (contracts to buy stocks in the future) are traded. By listening to what other traders are betting on in the long term, stock traders can get a better idea of what the price of the underlying stock will do in the immediate future. Sound crazy? It is. It is quite possibly the most exciting job around. How often does a trader "trade"? Traders average around 250 transactions, representing 250-500,000 shares in a single day. Some of the company's top traders will move upwards of two to three million! How are traders paid? Traders earn a percentage of the overall net profit they make in any given month, and the more profit they make, the larger percentage of it they take home. What qualifications do I need to become a Trader? Traders are energetic, competitive, and driven by an insatiable need to succeed. No related experience is necessary, however, as Swift Trade provides extensive training to all potential traders. We look for people who can handle an extremely fast-paced and highly pressurized environment with enthusiasm and flare. How can I apply?

I just had to make a comment about this. I find APM pointless, I could hotkey nexus+probes on 1-2 at beginning and randomly go 12121212121212 to boost APM. Sure APM speed in actual gameplay means something, but running a ling around LT or BGH using waypoints every 5 seconds to boost or clicking minerals/worker continously is pointless.
Students are allowed to risk much less money than traders. A single trader's profits at the end of the month cover the losses of many students.
