About Trader PhD

EARLY DAYS

Chad grew up on a family farm in Iowa. He raised seed corn, commercial corn, soybeans, and cattle. From an early age, Chad had a talent for numbers, formulas, spreadsheets and computers. Those talents found a place using futures and options, working with his Dad on finding ways to hedge their price risk. His first trade at the age of 14 with his father in May 1987 started over 30 years of active commodity trading as both a hedger and speculator.

WHY THE NAME TRADER PHD?

We believe you don't need to have a PhD to understand how to trade the markets. Here at Trader PhD we strive to provide you the most accurate, unique, and important information in a way that everyone can understand and digest.

SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT

We have developed hundreds of trading systems, backtesting market data going back to the 1950s to find patterns and scenarios that make money and reduce risk.

TRADING EXPERIENCE

After taking thousands of trades over dozens of markets, you see the worst of what the markets can dish out. Regardless of what happens in the markets, it needs to be handled. Day-in and day-out. That's our edge over most brokers who just don't have the experience of risking their own money on trades on a consistent basis. There's just no replacement for that.

Be prepared for what is ahead in the markets. Follow along as you hear us explain what we're seeing develop, and how to handle it. It's a never-ending task.

Take a trial, and you'll see the difference.
