All you really need is a 2 year live account statement that says you make 300-400pips a week. This statement would have to be audited by a large reputable accounting firm. Once you've done that you don't need any other certifications.
However, if you prefer --
Complete the Series 7 and 63 examinations with th NASD is the bare bones licensing in the united states.
Get a CTA (Commodity Trading Advisor) designation.
most hedge fund managers have either (or both!) an MBA (Masters in Business Administration) or a CFA (Certified Financial Analyst) or a CPA
These designations mean nothing when it comes to Forex trading.. But if you would like to add a layer of credibility then go for it.
