Career in Proprietary Trading Firms

Hi, I am graduating next year, while my degree is in Chartered Accounting, this stuff really bore me to death, I hate it and I suck at it.

Trading and investing in the financial markets has been my passion for a long time, and there is no doubt I Want to do this for a living. what are the best way to start off? any one works for any trading firms? how do i get my foot in the door to be a professional trader for banks/firms?

just google prop firms canada?

i'd say get any banking job for experience first then look in those career search websites. look under financial services or search investment/foreign exchange. i got a couple of friends that are doing IB/forex for banks. the usual path is through an intern otherwise u need some sort of banking experience. Good luck, im in the same boat.

p.s i dont think the type of degree really matters in this case. my friends brother got job as a currency trader with his degree in mathematics
