I thought I'd share this. A while back, I asked about how to distinguish oneself and break into Equity S&T but you don't yet have the Series 7 and cannot currently get it because you're not with a broker dealer.
Assuming however, that you have the Series 6 and want to get more licenses on your own, an option would be to get the Series 55 which is an equity trader license.
However, to get the Series 55, you have to already have a Series 7 OR you can go in the backdoor and get the Series 62 license.
So for me, that may be my plan of execution as well. Get the Series 62 license and then get the Series 55. To my knowledge, the Series 62 does NOT require sponsorship. If anyone knows otherwise, let me know.
The Series 55 (equity trader) license is described briefly here: http://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/series55.asp#…
Series 55 sucks I failed twice. And getting series licenses won't get you the job
Quick question regarding the Series 55: Equity Trader (Originally Posted: 07/14/2009)
Hi guys, I have a question regarding the Series 55; some firms require Traders to have this and the series 7 to trade. But some firms on the other hand only require you to have the series 7. I know at RBC Prof Trading, you only need the 7 meanwhile at FNY you need both the 7 and the 55. Why do some firms require the traders to have the series 55 but some only require them to have the series 7? Who would need the series 55 license? Thanks.
