Rise of the Female Trader

Uncategorized · August 23, 2012

There’s a warm place in my heart for infographics. Infographics are to the 2000’s what countdowns were to the 80’s and 90’s. It doesn’t really matter what it’s about, it’s interesting. I used to watch countdowns about Lindsay Lohan’s Favorite Party Spots. If I saw #10, I would have to see #1.

Today’s infographic is from City Index. City Index “is a leading spread betting and CFD provider, offering competitive spread and margin access on thousands of markets. We all know that women have taken a different role in the business workforce in recent decades, but how about the rise of the female trader?

New data from CityIndex shows a dramatic rise in female traders, key highlights of the data include: • 1000%+ Rise in Female Traders in 10 Years

  • The most popular occupations of City Index’s top female traders include house wives, teachers, secretaries and those working in administration
  • One of City Index’s most successful female traders, a 51-year-old living in Surrey in the UK, has profited just over £1,200,000 to date (May 2012)
  • A 19-year old Shop Assistant – their youngest active female trader – has made a total profit of £11,222 whilst a Contract Teacher earning £32,000 a year has profited over £158,000 with her account
