To be honest I don't actually think that one should be relying merely on such a forum to understand about the industry. The correct way is actually researching on relevant companies, getting a role there even if it's not a trader role u can work your way up and networking with people. The key is you need to start going out to build relationship in a healthy way for your career. The more people you talk to the more you learn. It applies thruout all industries.

At this point I am assuming the candidate has relevant education and experience and has great abilities to comprehence information not just on the face value. If you are a direct fit for the role it will be easier to apply but if you are not just try to be the best candidate among the category since opportunity are for those who are best prepared. You may be a good student but poor in writing cv. You may be good in interviews but slow learner in work. You need to consider different levels of barriers that needs to overcome to win this. For that one can't succeed without trying and failing.

A Trader role is a fun and rewarding career. In the manner you guys are asking about salaries and duties are totally unncessary and classless. This is coming for a guy who is not from an elite school or background and has work his way up from the age of 13, doing all kinds of odd job - labour, service,sales, security, retail, etc...

I do not believe in providing 'free gifts' as i know from experiences that one will never treasure it without actually putting Real effort. And for real effort you need to sacrifice somethings. Be it doing an industry switch and become a junior again or risk of not having income etc... If you cannot sacrifice then don't even consider.

When you become a trader you will understand more about the sadness when you are no longer in power people will leave you. Then you need to learn that ordinary is the way of life no matter how well you do in your post. Family comes 1st always.

Enjoy your Saturday.

Alright peace out !!
