Quote from piphunter:
Hit the street and network your ass off meeting every single person you can that will listen to you and your dream to work in the markets. Cold call people (chief dealers, chief traders, etc) and ask them if you can apply for their trainee program. Are you trading now and what is your track record? A good one helps prove your aptitude. Believe in yourself and overcome any obstacles that you seem to have about your inferior education. The school you attended doesn't matter in becoming a trader--it only sets you further back because you can't tap into the alum networks. So make your own future instead.
