Acting as a principal

Stockbrokers also sometimes or exclusively trade on their own behalf, as a , speculating that a share or other financial instrument will increase or decline in price. In such cases the term ''broker'' makes little sense and the individuals or firms trading in principal capacity sometimes call themselves dealers, stock traders or simply ''traders''. [A stock broker ''is just the main part of being a '''City Trader'''''. Other types of City Trading include working in the '''Foreign Exchange'''.
