An equity trader uses money to buy and sell stock and shares in the stock market. The traders normally work in Wall Street and handle the money people give to them to try and make a profit on buying shares in the stock market or selling shares. It all depends on the rise or fall of the item on the market and when the best time it is to buy or sell the share.

Equities are stocks, and a trader buys and sells things, earning commission for their services.
So an equity trader is someone who buys and sells stocks for investors, and charge a commission for their service.

Equities are generally stock of companies. Equity traders work with the stock exchanges (NYSE, FTSE, etc.) around the world and act as agents for investors (you and me). For a commission, they will buy our sell your stock on the market to the highest bidder (another trader). Both traders make commissions, and we get our stock investments.
