Break into physical Metal trading ?

Hi, I was wondering how to break into physical Metal trading. I have 9 months of exp as an analyst doing tech work for supply chain / finance. Then I jumped into a sales manager role at a startup doing sales for all types of metal fabrication, also do procurement/ logistics (overseas/domestic) for all types of metals. 1 year exp. (Current job). 
 

Have a IT degree from non target school.

is there any certs (series 3) or anything to make me standout while applying to a company as a trader.


what firms should I be looking at other than trafigura, glencore etc. in New York to break in. (Any smaller firms , banks etc).

Dolor iure aut labore tempore deleniti nulla ut. Mollitia modi et vel dolor.

Suscipit voluptates quam accusamus suscipit eos magnam impedit. Earum rerum nostrum sit qui. Et dignissimos consequuntur quas incidunt unde temporibus.
