Seeking career advice analyst/associate

Hi everyone,

I am at a point in my life where I need some direction and asking the community for their feedback. I am 33 and have been an equities trader with a few prop firms in NY for the past seven years and have also put in a few years as an equity research analyst. I only graduated from a community college with an associates degree.

My passion has always been in trading/ib/equities and wanted to know at age 33 with my background what position/field would you recommend I pursue to get my foot in the door at a real bank?

Just looking to get honest opinions as I feel lost at my age not knowing if i would have a chance anywhere in investment banking or fixed income. Even if i had to start at the ground floor i am all for it. I am totally open to go either route and with your help it could provide me with a clear path where I would potentially have a chance.

I was encouraged to pursue the following below, any thoughts which one I would most likely have a shot at?

+Fixed Income, IIRC. Analyst
+IB Equity Capital Markets Associate

Thanks so much.
Dean
