"I think the competitiveness of the environment is the best thing for me. The ability to think quickly and precisely under duress, toughens you up mentally to handle problems in the real world. The training is fairly rigorous and gets you conditioned for success, similar to athletics."

"I love the atmosphere that I have entered into. SMW is a team oriented business. Everybody is willing to help you make the transition from being a student to becoming part of the working world. The training I am receiving is top notch combined that with my background as a University of Wisconsin student and athlete, I believe the trading field is the place for me."

"The fast pace in trading allows for an exciting work environment. It is extraordinary, competitive atmosphere which gives me a chance to use my competitiveness."
Kelly L. Option Trader: 1990
DePaul University B.S. Marketing Varsity Basketball
"As a working mother of three young children trading is a very positive and challenging experience. Everyday presents new challenges. You have to evaluate the current situation and react immediately, change plans in the middle of the game. Athletes work well as traders because they are trained to change plans in the middle of the game. This mentality is a definite plus in the pit."
Steve K. Electronic Trader: 2000
University of Illinois B.S. Math
"The transition from school to work has been an easy one. There is a camaraderie among all of the trader trainees which has helped the most. With the older trainees helping out the younger ones, this creates a similar situation that I experienced when I was in a fraternity in college."
Joseph C. Electronic Trader: 2002
University of Illinois B.A. Economics
"One aspect in searching for a career would be to find a company that had an excellent training program. The hands-on-training along with unlimited resources of interacting with traders, computer programs and seminars has fulfilled my expectations of a solid career training program. A satisfying career rewards you with a challenge, knowledge and an opportunity of financial success. SMW has fulfilled those characteristics along with potential expectations of many more rewards to come.
Amy B. Electronic Trader 2002
University of Illinois 2000 B.S. Finance Varsity Soccer
"Joining rhe team at SMW is similar to joining a new athletic team. You meet people, find your place on the team and strive to the highest level. The transition into a new team is what you make of it... anything is possible."
