If someone could help me out that would be really appreciated. Also, what skills do trading firms usually look for in candidates? My current knowledge is that trading firms only expect graduates to have strong logical, analytical, and lateral thinking skills with some coding skills as well; and they teach everything about the markets. Is this true?


Thanks in advance.
You could apply to the banks they all have trading rooms , FX,Interest rates etc.
