i mean, is there a specific degree that a person must have? or is an MBA all that is necessary to be able to trade stocks?

You don't even have to have a degree... a BA or a finance degree helps...but all you have to do is pass the series 7 exam...it's hard but you can take a test prep class. You could go further and earn a CFP..certified financial planner...but you don't have to. However, would you trust someone with your investments who did not have a degree. Look into finance degrees...or a CFP...those are your best bets.

and quickly achieve the results that very few achieve. ... Forex trading training demonstration course video technical analysis forex system ...

Yes.

You can become one of the professionals who work to create ways of getting around financial regulations, to the detriment of society.


Do something worthwhile instead. There is a long list.

Unless, you are just interested in getting money and screwing the rest of us.

How does one train to be a stock broker? An inexpensive course that is accredited by stock companies... Thank you

You have to be hired by a brokerage firm as a trainee. They will set you up for training which includes the Series 7 exam and others depending on what the firm sells. You have to be sponsored by a brokerage firm to take this exam.
Check your local community college for classes on investing to get a sense if its something you want to do.

what would be a recommended major? any recommended colleges in new jersey?

The best majors would be Economics or Finance -- but you can become a stock broker with any major.

As for New Jersey -- in my opinion, the only schools worth looking at in the state are Princeton (an elite private school <obviously>), Rutgers (a very good public university) or The College of New Jersey (a good regional public university). For other fields, NJIT or Stevens might be OK. The other colleges in NJ just aren't that good. On the other hand, there are a lot of good universities in Eastern Pennsylvania.

Thats a tough question, partly because it depends on what kinds of stock broker you want to be and partly because it depends on what classes are offered at your local business school. There are a multitude of different stocks, and types therein. Do you want to be the kind of broker who sells investments directly to clients, or a trader on the NYSE floor? Do you want to trade corporate stocks, derivitaves, bonds, or something else? My suggestion would be to first take a basic finance class so you can understand the language that the professionals in that field are speaking. After you have that understanding try a class that focuses on market fundamentals and will cover different types of investments like the ones I mentioned above. That way you will know what kinds of investments interest you. After you know that, you will know where to specialize and can begin looking for an internship with the company who needs specialists in the same type of trading you want to be in. Hope this helps.
