The thing is ... can you? I don't want to question your trading experience but I'll check - what assets you'll trade, what strategy, what time frame? Do you have experience trading before? Do you know about the spreads you need to beat? Are you familiar with hedging around event risk?
So many people come here and say, if I can get a 20% return from $100,000, then confirm employer will hire me even if I am SIM graduate. Just answer the question first ... can you even get a 20% return?

Last year I made about $500 with my own money of ~$4000, that's about 25% playing the stock market. I am hoping to make 25-30% this year. So if I can get average 25% for 2 years, will this help in getting a trading job?
