Certification to Trade Client Accounts

Is it the series 3 or 65 exam one must pass to trade FOREX accounts for others?

Re: Certification to Trade Client Accounts

I assume you're asking about US environment. Technically, to trade Forex accounts for the client(s) there is no other requirement except to clear them through NFA registered brokerage. In turn, the broker is responsible for ones misconduct.

That said, you still may elect to register with NFA, which supposedly provides you with better credentials and effectively makes you personally accountable in front of NFA and/or CFTC. The series of exam you need to pass depends on what capacity in you elect to register with NFA, with 3 series covering it all. Hope this helps.
