New to trading, I am wondering how much room there is for negotiating a starting salary. Will trading firms generally work with you to some extent or are they pretty fixed? I imagine this depends on a few factors (which firm we are speaking of and how many offers you have)?
Say you have an offer or two (with extremely fair salaries and benefits already), what is a reasonable percentage above what was offered to ask for? Or should you even be asking? I feel that justifying asking for higher pay is hard due to the fact that your bonus will reflect why (if you even should) receive a higher wage.
I would appreciate any insight into this subject.
Thanks again,
