Becoming A Commodities Broker? Series 3 License

Hi, you are just the type of person I need to talk to. I have some questions. What are some studying tips because i have been putting in 6 hours a day of studying. 2 hours memorizing in morning, 2 hours working problems in the afternoon and 2 hours of reading and taking notes in the evening. The only study material i have is this program on the website on the.ifm.org. This websites have a practive test i can take and it has a good number of questions on each section on the series 3 exam. I also have packets from creative businesses.org which covers each section of the series 3. My last question is since im only 19 yrs old. Once i recieve my series 3 license, and i dont get a job in two years, will my license be invalid? Also how does the series 3 license look? do you recieve it after you pass the test?
Happy New Year.

Dear forum members/admins

I am a new junior member to this forum.To put my story, I am a software engineer by profession and purely into coding and design.But I regularly follow stock markets and invest in few stocks (buy/sell). I am always fascinated with Wall st job and investment banking.
I am living in USA on H1B visa and awaiting my green card.
My queries:

1.Can an individual like me whose background is in s/w qualify for this exam?
2.Does my H1B visa status not allow to take this exam?

3.Suppose I am allowed to take the exam and hopefully I pass,how can I use my Series 3 licence to trade or anything else?

Waiting for your suggestions.
Thanks again

hi belnor... basically i have a few question regarding series 3 exams...

1) i want to give this exam but i dont have any company sponsoring me .. should i be able to give it without it ... what do i need to do basically for that ... i don't reside in u.s .. i m from Asia ...
2) how much does it cost i mean registrations n all after u pass the exam ...
3) i want to give it in canada and work there also .. so would it be able to help me if i look for a job there ...
4) what are the benifits after passing it .. jobs, financially e.t.c

thank u ... !

Since I cannot start new threads, so i am posting to this older thread.

Hopefully, one of the members can point me in the right direction.

It is possible to take the Series 3 and 34 exam, without any company sponsorship or even having a company of your own.

While I am researching the best and cheapest way to become a CTA, if possible i would like to get the exams out of the way.

Thanks for any help

Got the usual govt runaround before found the answer.

Luckily Series 3 and 34 are the only 5 or so tests for which no sponsorship
is needed.

If anyone is interested go to the finra website and earch for form U10.

hi belnor,

orex Factory is focused entirely on forex trading, and therefore the primary focus of every member should be trading. The amount of trading-related sentences a member posts must far outweigh the non-trading sentences. While non-trading topics will naturally be mixed into discussions, the foundation of every discussion and debate should be related to trading.

This code is essential to maintaining a high-quality trading environment. Not only does trading focus keep the environment pure, but with members from every nation, religion, and political party, trading is the only thing everyone has in common. Focusing on what unifies the membership results in a superior trading environment.

II. Respect fellow traders

Theoretically, all members are at Forex Factory for the same purpose: the pursuit of trading profits. Therefore, members should treat each other like professional colleagues. Members should not be mean-spirited, harassing, or otherwise show hatred toward a member. Unresolvable personality conflicts should be managed using the 'Ignore' (

) feature.

III. No bickering

While trading-related debate is encouraged, members should not engage in mindless arguing, battling, or trolling. Not only does bickering distract others from trading, but it wastes energy for the bickering participants. Unresolvable personality conflicts should be managed using the 'Ignore' (

IV. No nationalism or racism

With members from every nation and race, members should be sensitive to how they speak about other countries and ethnicities. Members should never show hatred for or be derogatory toward a country or a race of people. Generally, countries should only be referred to in terms of economics or market impact, and with an unbiased financial tone. Humorous tones, however, are generally accepted.
