Prop Shop/ Trading Help

[K22139]

Hi guys,

I'm relatively new here so apologies if this is in the wrong place or if this sort of post has been posted before. Just looking for any help/advice anybody can give me. I am a graduate looking to get into trading (FX ideally) but have little to no professional experience. The only experience I have is a few weeks internship at a large brokerage in London and I also trade FX in my spare time as a hobby trying to learn the markets. Whilst browsing these forums I've seen a few people say here and there good prop shops offer training and/or no joining fee.

Could anybody give me names of any decent/legitimate prop shops that would take on a graduate like myself as I'm looking to really build a career here in the trading world but don't know which way to go. IB's are out of my reach academically as I didnt go to Oxbridge or any of those prestigious uni's they usually hire from. Any other routes/companies I could approach would also be much appreciated. Anything entry level or internships or anything like that I can atleast make a start with and then work up

Thank you
