IBD move into Trading. Advice + Interview?

Fellow apes,

I'm currently an IBD analyst intern considering a move into S&T before FT cause I find the IBD work a bit slow. I have a general understanding of the industry from work but was wondering about the specifics of the interview process. What types of technicals should I be studying? It seems that there are fewer resources about trading than IB interviews. 

Appreciate the help chimps!
