Cut that thickest lowest branch. It's too thick compared to the others and looks out of place.

I agree with mojosan, especially because it has a bar-branch effect. I think this tree will fill out nicely. If you are able to graft some roots, it will be a stately tree.

There's the nebrai to work on and the branches. You have acquired a nice piece of stock which is a lot to say in itself. You need to work with it and build it, start thinking about secondary branching and where they will go...

Plant on angle?
Just posted, didn't appear. If this post ends up appearing twice, I apologize.
My suggestion for fun:
Plant on an angle, and make the thick branch on the right the new leader, with the smaller branch on the left acting as the 1st branch.
See virt for details.
