Forex Trading Jobs.

For those individuals with a desire to enter the Forex market, it is important to know the risks associated with the industry.

Included are the dangers of money loss (mostly due to inexperience), a volatile market, a fast-paced, high stress occupation, and, especially in these times, the lack of solid job security. Also, since Forex trading is international, it takes place 24 hours a day. Many firms do business around the clock; and it is not uncommon for a trader to work odd hours. This can lead to physical and mental exhaustion. If this doesn’t deter you, though, then the Forex market can also be a profitable and rewarding career choice.

Forex trading is often promoted as an excellent work at home option, and almost anyone can do it. To get started you need only gain a deep understanding of the world currency markets, thoroughly understand how Forex works, and come to terms with the risks associated with this type of trading.

The other thing you’ll need to do is create an account(s) with an online broker. There are many to choose from!

Individuals with degrees and experience in the fields of economics, math, finance, accounting, and statistics usually find the Forex market a good fit for their skills.

Individuals in the Forex industry deal with a lot of professionals in the financial world, from a wide range of countries. For certain occupations in the field, a lot of time is spent communicating with these individuals over the phone or via electronic transmissions. Patience, time management skills, and a knack for handling stressful situations are crucial to employment in this field. Also required are strong math skills, an analytical mind, technical skills, and sometimes a fluency in a foreign language.

Entering the Forex Arena.

Most financial institutions, and all the major ones, require a bachelor’s degree in Economics, Finance, Math, and/or Statistics. At times, though, individuals with degrees in other fields can find work in the financial industry. For higher level positions as fund managers and analysts, an advanced degree and relevant industry experience is usually preferred. However, it is possible to work one’s way up the ladder with the minimal requirements of a degree and experience. Many employers highly value a fluency in a foreign language. This is especially true for the Forex industry as professionals in this field communicate with dealers, brokers, and banking professional from foreign countries on a daily basis.

Remember, for those who acquire the necessary knowledge and understand the risks, trading Forex from home – as an independent trader – is the most common practice. To do you will need to create an account with an online broker.

Working In Finance: 5 Forex Careers.

The forex markets can be an exciting and lucrative market to trade if you thoroughly understand how to buy and sell currencies. If you're drawn to this area, you might even want to make it your career.

Forex jobs are fast-paced and can mean strange work hours and long work days since forex markets are open 24 hours a day, five total days a week. They require knowledge of and compliance with laws and regulations governing financial accounts and transactions. Some jobs require candidates to have passed one or more exams, such as the Series 3, Series7, Series 34 or Series 63 exams. If you are eligible to work in a foreign country, a career in forex can bring the added excitement of living abroad. No matter where you work, knowing a foreign language, particularly German, French, Arabic, Russian, Spanish, Korean, Mandarin, Cantonese, Portuguese or Japanese, is helpful and might be required for some positions. (The forex market has a lot of unique attributes that may come as a surprise for new traders, check out The Forex Market: Who Trades Currency And Why .)

This article will provide an overview of five major career areas in forex. Keep in mind that specific positions tend to have different names at different companies.

1. Forex Market Analyst/Currency Researcher/Currency Strategist.

An analyst might also provide educational seminars and webinars to help clients and potential clients get more comfortable with trading forex. Analysts also try to establish a media presence in order to become a trusted source of forex information and promote the companies they work for. Thus, there is a large marketing component to being a forex analyst. (This market can be treacherous for unprepared investors. Find out how to avoid the mistakes that keep FX traders from succeeding, read Top Reasons Forex Traders Fail .)

An analyst should have a bachelor's degree in economics, finance or a similar area and may be expected to have at least one year of experience working in the financial markets as a trader and/or analyst and be an active forex trader. Communication and presentation skills are desirable in any job, but are particularly important for an analyst. Analysts should also be well-versed in economics, international finance and international politics.

2. Account Manager/Professional Trader/Institutional Trader.

These positions have very high stakes: Account managers are responsible for large amounts of money, and their professional reputations and the reputations of their employers ride on how well they handle those funds. They are expected to meet profit targets while working with an appropriate level of risk. These jobs may require experience with specific trading platforms as well as work experience in finance and a bachelor's degree in finance, economics or business. Institutional traders may need to be effective traders not just of forex, but also of commodities, options, derivatives and other financial instruments.

The CFTC hires attorneys, auditors, economists, futures trading specialists/investigators and management professionals. Auditors ensure compliance with CFTC regulations and must have at least a bachelor's degree in accounting, though a master's and Certified Public Accountant (CPA) designation are preferred. Economists analyze the economic impacts of CFTC rules and must have at least a bachelor's degree in economics. Futures trading specialists/investigators perform oversight and investigate alleged fraud, market manipulation and trade practice violations, and are subject to work experience and educational requirements that vary by position.

CFTC jobs are located in Washington, DC, Chicago, Kansas City and New York and require U. S. citizenship and a background check. The CFTC also provides consumer education and fraud alerts to the public. Since the CFTC oversees the entire commodity futures and options markets in the United States, an understanding of all aspects of these markets, not just forex, is necessary.

The NFA is similar to the CFTC and also oversees the broader futures and commodities markets, but instead of being a government agency, it is a private-sector self-regulatory organization authorized by Congress. Its missions are to maintain market integrity, fight fraud and abuse and resolve disputes through arbitration. It also protects and educates investors and enables them to research brokers, including forex brokers, online. Most NFA jobs are located in New York, but a few are in Chicago. (Think this career is right for you? Learn more about how to get in - and how to succeed, read Becoming A Financial Analyst .)

Internationally, a regulator could work for any of the following agencies:

Financial Services Authority (FSA) in the United Kingdom Financial Services Agency (FSA) in Japan Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) in Hong Kong Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) in Australia.

4. Exchange Operations Associate/Trade Audit Associate/Exchange Operations Manager.

An exchange operations associate's job responsibilities include: processing new customer accounts; verifying customers' identities as required by federal regulations; processing customers' withdrawals, transfers and deposits; and providing customer service. The job usually requires a bachelor's degree in finance, accounting or business; problem-solving and analytical skills; and understanding of financial markets and instruments, especially forex. It may also require previous brokerage experience. (For more, see Broker Or Trader: Which Career Is Right For You? )

A related position is a trade audit associate. This job involves working with customers to resolve trade-related disputes. Trade audit associates must be good with people and able to work quickly and think on their feet to solve problems. They also must thoroughly understand forex trading and the company's trading platform in order to help customers.

An exchange operations manager has more experience and greater responsibilities than an exchange operations associate. These professionals execute, fund, settle and reconcile forex transactions. The job may require familiarity with forex-related software, such as the widely used Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) system. (The global interconnection of U. S. payment systems makes commercial and financial transfers possible, check out Inside National Payment Systems .)

5. Software Developer.

Software developers may not be required to have financial, trading or forex knowledge to work for a forex brokerage, but knowledge in this area will be a major advantage. If you are a forex trader yourself, you'll have a much better idea of what customers are looking for in forex software. Software quality is a major factor differentiating one forex brokerage from another and a key to the company's success. A brokerage faces serious problems if its clients can't execute trades when they want or trades are not executed on time because the software doesn't work properly. A brokerage also needs to be able to attract customers with unique software features and practice trade platforms.

Other positions in forex for computer types include user-experience designers, web developers, network and systems administrators and support technicians.
