I wanted to know if I can satisfying CFA’s 4 year requirement, if I open and register a company/hedge fund and do my own stock trading? It will give me equity experience but will it qualify as experience for the CFA?

Also, this has to be a full-time job. No part-time.

^ interesting.  It used to be just 2 and 1 of them was supposed to be your supervisor.  I believe they allowed you to use someone other than your supervisor if you had a valid reason why you did not want him or her to know that you were applying for membership.
