Thats jdeezero05. That is the kind of response I was looking for. I have no prob. working my way up from the bottom over time. I thought execution trading was the bottom. Is a settlement position that much lower? Does anyone have any suggestions on getting a Masters in Financial...

Any tips for a person trying to get a job as an execution trader? I have several years of prop trading experience. I left trading in 2006 to go back to school. I currently hold a BS in Finance, graduated Magna Cum Laude, and have a good math and computer science base. I have been trying to...
