IB SA Trading Restrictions
Does anyone know about trading restrictions for summer analysts/interns? I am not sure if you are technically allowed to trade during this and if anyone has any insight it is very appreciated.

Also wondering. I think we’ll definitely need to migrate our brokerage to something they can monitor
ohh dont like trading!
bump
My bank in offer letter said I should move any trading accounts to their brokerage arm, and I believe you can't trade at all during the internship (or would need to get every trade cleared by compliance). Obviously not sure how virtual internships might impact this
Hey guys I could use some input into my current situation. My internship starts on July 6 but I have been trading on my personal account up to June 26 since I had not received correspondence from the bank that interns could not do so. However I finally received my work-from-home laptop today and after setting up the computer I looked through the emails in my corporate email account and saw that there is a compliance policy for the internship stating that new hires have to disclose and get approval for any trades starting June 19. Would I get in trouble if I was not aware of this policy until today? Is this something I should tell HR about or would notifying HR cause more harm than good considering the positions are small and not in my direct industry group? Any advice would be welcome and appreciated.
Iam getting considerably irritated by the amount of annoying and foolish IB SAs asking about trading for the couple weeks of their internship. You are not going to be a millionaire in those few weeks!
I lost all my money trading options lol
Yo, Hilary Clinton is WAY TOO EXCITED. To hear him speak lolol![]()

I'm sure your investment bank will be totally fine with you trading stock while having access to confidential information.
