About me

Introduction With over 25 years on Wall Street I have experience trading and managing risk in multiple markets. Trading High Grade Corporates for Drexel Burnham gave me an in-depth knowledge of credit spreads as well as how and why they move. Later, as Chief Dealer of Interest Rate Options for Barclays Bank Plc. New York, I gained practical knowledge of the derivatives market as well as how to manage option risk. Additionally, I have built technical trading models and managed commodity portfolios for Tamiso &; Company a CTA that has been in business since 1983 as well as my own small CTA, Market Strategies Mgmt., LLC. These experiences formed the pool of knowledge from which I drew to build the CEC Strategy. A practical, in-depth understanding of credit spreads and optionality combined with well disciplined risk management all join together to produce a trading strategy that produces high quality, low volatility returns.
