Then I can't give you much advice. I know very little about the job of a trader in an investment bank. I would guess that if you are already a trader, the sky is the limit. Given your risk limits, you form your strategy and edge, and you make the cash. I know in the hedge fund space, the funds keeps 20% of the profits so my guess is that in another industry, like agri, you too keep a portion of your profits. You'll be educating me then.

What about the job you want to make better? Pay, prestige, branding, ownership of work, freedom of strategy, exploring other assets?
