When it comes to the field of business, people are very much confused about the jobs of two related professions. This is the stocker broker and the stock trader; they both have different roles that they play.

Brokers are more or less the same as a sales representative; they buy and sell stocks and have direct contact or communication with their respective clients. Brokers do the buying and selling of shocks either for themselves or a firm. They also increase the base of their client through creative ideas like advertising and creating seminars that will lure the clients.

Traders usually work under a bigger investment management firm or company, traders usually sell, buy, and trade securities in place of assets. The most trader usually doesn’t keep stocks for a long period because of price variations.
