2018 Summer Analyst Szn - In Need of Some Resume Advice...

So this will be my first time entering recruitment. I'm currently a junior studying accounting and looking to add either Finance or Management Information Systems, but listed finance as well on my resume as it will be less credits and therefore most likely my choice.

Biggest problem: Barely semi-target and had to do tons of summer coursework to save money since I switched majors a year deep into undergrad.

Some things I am worried about specifically on my Resume:

Explaining my YouTube partnership... Was grounded 6 months at 14, so all I did was game and turned that into income for 5 years. Used it to pay for all non-academic expenses.

Looking like I have somewhat relevant experience. Shadowed a hedge fund one summer before summer courses start... add it? Also wondering if adding BIWS will help at all given I have nothing else that looks great really.

Some advice on structuring my sentences.

Should I add In education that I was studying Philosophy, Politics, Economics, and Law (PPEL) before major change?

Should I keep the investing and day trading in interests?

It's a major part of my story as I traded commodity etfs and shorted small cap stocks every single hour of every day my second semester when I had Mono. Made a complete academic change because of it.

Anything else or anything at all is much appreciated. Would also be great if you could comment on whether you'd toss my resume on sight or if it looks decent enough to pass. (From a banks perspective)

I see I missed the period at the end of one of my sentences... Happened when I was getting rid of personal details.
