Normally FX is in the private sector and works for accounts or customers. Most trades are in the private sector and are done globally. They usually deal with a lot of high volume trading as well. My friend working in FX makes around $150k without bonus.

How many YOE does your friend have?

Turned down a gig at Apple two years ago because I saw a lot of growth opportunities at my current company and saw the position as a step back (even though it was more money) and have regretted it ever since. Still in the same exact position at the same company I was then btw. Bad choice.

I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.
