Coding Bootcamp after Undergrad?

I'm about to graduate with a degree in math from a low target/semitarget and don't have any finance experience. I am interested in trading as a career path and was wondering if it would be worthwhile to enroll in a coding bootcamp after I graduate (as well as any other roles for which this might be a good idea)
