Michael Hinman 866-471-2048 Email Michael Follow Michael on Twitter My clients have a variety of interests, resources and risk tolerances. I work with each individually deriving a strategy that suits their needs. Striving for equity growth while protecting initial capital investment embodies my straightforward approach to futures trading. I place heavy emphasis on discipline when implementing a trade strategy and encourage my clients to emotionally detach themselves from all transactions. My goal is simple. I want my clients to benefit financially from my experience, knowledge, and enthusiasm for futures trading and through our relationship develop a better understanding of the principle factors that affect market movement and/or price action.

Industry Background:

After starting as a clerk on the floor of the Chicago Board of Trade® I rose through the ranks to become a member of the exchange and traded my own account. I left the floor to manage money for a high net worth investment group at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange®. Throughout my futures career I assisted in the research and trade development for a large international futures fund.

Market Focus:

Grains, Financials, Stock Indexes, Currencies, Metals and Energies.

Technical Study Background:

Bar Charts, Moving Averages, Open Interest, Volume, Steidlmayer's Market Profile, Relative Strength and Fibonacci.

Advisory Background:

Hightower, Man Global Research, Vardon Report & Moore Research.

Trading Strategies:

I utilize a variety of technical indicators for discovering unique market opportunities and for identifying specific entry/exit levels. Fundamental market factors are reviewed and considered as a final confirmation or rejection of the technical indicators. Ultimately, the trade strategy is born out of money management principles tailored to the financial objectives of each individual client.

Analysis Preference:

I rely heavily on technical indicators for developing trade strategies and identifying specific entry/exit levels but pay close attention to the fundamentals for the overall picture.
