Physical Commodity Trading (3.5 YOE) -> Equity Trader?
Title pretty much sums it up. Looking to make a move from physical commodity trading to equity trading. I do not currently hold a series but we do participate in hedges for our clients. I have experience w/ back-to-back, long and short trades.
Is it feasible to think that I would be able to market this experience to lateral into an equity trading role?
Just curious why you wanna move from Phys commodities trading to equities?
Simply put, it seems sexier
Personally, going into something because it sounds "sexy" is not the best ideology to follow - I would stick with something you're good at and enjoy doing before risking burnout homie. Take care
That’s an odd career move, wouldn’t it make more sense to move to a prop trading desk and trade what you have experience in?
In a normal situation I would agree with you however I deal in a commodity that (to my knowledge) is not widely speculated on. Do you think I would still be able to use the skill I have of understanding markets to lateral into a prop role?
precious metals?
Yes
Precious metal is not a spec commo? Come on
