Can you pursue Sales and Trading without knowing how to code and doing quant related stuff anymore ?
I was wondering is sales and trading is still possible doing without coding or quant. Do you have to be only math major or computer science major to break in. And if yes what kinda positions ?
Bro just focus on getting that GPA up before you worry about this
I thought it was 3.4 or sth. Then went on his post history to find 2.74. Damn 😂
And dude has the audacity to MS you.
You're the same guy from the NYSE post correct? We've already answered your question - you don't have to be a CS or math major but from what I've been told the vast majority of applications these days have at least some coding skill. It's table-stakes.
You dont have to but everyone knows how to code nowadays. Your competitors could be coming from quant, cs or engineering. The last time I talked to some senior people on the trading floor, they value people who know how to code and especially those who understand ML stuff..
Even the sales interns in my batch know how to code. A lot of data analytics work involved (ie they built dashboards to analyse historical orders and chat data)
Which coding platforms/languages are most popular? VBA and Python? Thank you.
