Actually, the one time I was audited, they went thru my entire confirm list one by one and it took 13 hours. They want to see each trade UNLESS you do mark to market accounting.

I was fffd over last year after a long career as a buyside trader. They basically screwed me because they are going to algorithms. Trading is going to be a thing of the past working for firms. I expect 50% or more of Trader jobs to vanish due to technology. I am really bitter because I gave...

I passed the 7 last week since I was on the buyside and my licenses expired but tried the 63 today and missed it barely. I did 65 questions but on my scoring report, only 60 appeared? What happened to the other 5 questions? The lady in the exam area told me only 1 person this week passed out...

I worked the past 8 years on the buyside before being scapegoated out and can tell you in the end as the place got huge and greedy, I felt the darkest of dark evil in the place, almost as if it had a Darth Vader feel to it. I used to say the place was soul sucking.

I don't entirely disagree with you. I do have a degree, accounting knowledge, financial knowledge etc...Automation is eating up trading and will continue to do so....so my question basically was "where do you go from here?"

Slacker - Do you trade full time? I love trading overall, just hated the corporate BS that came with working for someone. I need to find a way to get over the loss of security I thought I had. TIM

When your dead, all the money on Earth won;t matter.

7 years Retail Stockbrokerage, 8 years buyside equities. You have to realize that in order for me to make millions for the buyside firm, I was trading millions in client money. I don;t have millions to trade. I like trading, just hate asshole bosses who think everyone on the trading desk should...

I can pay the bills Trading but am deeply concerned about Health Insurance and also I wouldn;t be puting anything into Social Security. I have alot of years experience on the Buyside but was downsized due to a jackass boss who wanted to cut costs and use Algorithms. Note: I made this firm...
