STOCK TRADER
STOCK TRADER
What kind of education is required to become a professional investor/stock trader?
I am in the military, so I won't be making much money in my present vocation; however, when I do have time, I would like to study to be a professional investor, stock trader, or maybe even dabble in the foreign exchange. I am not looking for an MBA (I have a MAcc) or something to hang on my wall, I am looking for practical ways to learn to be a trader. Does anyone have any advice?
you do not need a formal education to become a stock broker. the guy that handles 5 of my mutual funds was in the navy for 6 years then went to work as an assistant at t rowe price. he now manages 9 funds and does a great job. your military background will help you get a job but you must know how the market works. read all you can about it. there are different series test you might have to take, series 6,7,62,63,65, depend on what you want to be able to trade. practice questions are available online. this will give you an idea of the things you need to know. it is not just about how a stock does during a trade session
ex:

a. Primary
b. Secondary
c. Third
d. Fourth

Which of the following does not apply as far as TRADING STOCKS on the floor of the NYSE is concerned?

b. Price precedence
c. Time and price parity
d. Premiums
How much of one company can a mutual find own?
good luck
this is a list of the series test you might need. dont be nervous, if it something you want to do, you will have no problem
