Hey, i'm in year 12 right now and doing maths, computing, chemistry and biology.

I was thinking about a career in stock trading. Can anyone tell me what i need to do to become a stock trader, ie which degree and how the whole application thing works please?

What kind of things can i do to stand out and become a strong applicant??

Oh and how competitive is it? like compared to medicine??

thanks!!
