If I wanted to get my series 3, do I need to be sponsored by a futures firm or any other type of broker dealer? I do have my 7 Thanks
No you do not need a "sponser" if you are going all the way and becoming a CTA. As far as just getting the AP status I am not sure. Just call the NFA at 1-800-621-3570....they are very helpful...and they are the one that do your registration. Just pay the money yourself. Michael B.
You don't have to have a sponsor for the series 3 whether you want to be a CTA or AP or anything else. You can self-sponsor and take the exam, then decide what you want to do with it. Jessie
