Is trading as cool as it looks?

Currently a US-based analyst in corporate banking at a major European balance sheet bank. S&T is something that always interested me, and something I would definitely be interested in trying. Is there someone on here willing to talk to me about this role in the bank and if a pivot is possible/appropriate?
