Trader Career Path

Hello,

I am wondering what typical career paths look like for traders in corporations. Also is anyone worried about autonomy taking away these jobs? If so why, don’t traders find deals and opportunities as well as placing the physical buy/sell orders?

Any info on salary’s would also be appreciated specifically in the Minneapolis area.

Thanks in advance.
