I am almost done studying for the exam, have signed up to take the test, and have begun the NFA/CFTC registration process. I don't know if that qualifies me to answer your question but I can try.

An atty email to me that some states require you to register as an investement advisor and would need a series 63 to satisfy them. I don't know if florida is one of them I haven't asked yet.

Florida does not require registration as an investment advisor. I checked with a lawyer who was a former auditor with the NFA.

I'll let you know when I pass the exam...LOL. Seriously, the material is good and was recommended to me by several professionals. I have seen the material for sale on ebay for a fraction of the price. It's not something you hang on to after you've passed.

Is that what I have to go through if I want to open up a private fund company in currency trading? How about a managed account where I manage and trade other people's money?

I took and passed the Series 3, but it was been about 3 years ago and I don't use it. It was in Florida also (I'm right down the road in Miami), so if you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

*edit* sorry..misread the post. not sure if you are in Florida or not, it was a different poster who is in Coral Springs
