I have been actively involved in the financial markets as a trader, market strategist, systems developer and trading educator for over 30 years. I have dedicated my career to the creation, development and trading of systematic/algorithmic trading models and to mentoring new and improving traders.
My first proprietary trading role was for a UK family office (2007-2009) where I traded spot FX and futures (Crude Oil, S & P 500, Gold, T-Bonds etc.) producing solid returns over an 18-month period with minimal drawdowns.
Moving to Switzerland in 2009 as Chief Market Strategist of a Swiss bank, I produced daily market analysis and ran my systems ('HF Systems') as a trading signals service exclusively for the bank's clients.
I went independent in mid-2012, obtaining a Swiss asset management license which enabled me to offer managed account services as a regulated asset manager and I have managed trading accounts on behalf of regulated entities for much of the time since.
In addition to trading related services I offer personalised trader training for new and aspiring traders and I deliver regular educational webinars for brokers and trading education providers.
I am a member of the CMT Association (joined in 1999) and was one of the first holders of the CMT designation outside the US (attained in 2004).
I have appeared regularly on the financial TV networks (CNBC etc.) and have conducted seminars on trading strategy development around the world.
