About

The firm provides personalized investment management and occasional confidential financial planning to individuals, pension and profit‑sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and small businesses, and the brochure also lists investment companies among its client types — a less common client segment for peer team firms. It reports managing roughly $43 million for about 130 clients and communicates periodic risk‑profile assessments and written updates, including a MarketTrends newsletter that summarizes multi‑timeframe trends.

Investment management is predominantly discretionary under a limited power of attorney and is implemented using proprietary technical and quantitative models across four core ETF‑based strategies (fixed income, allocation plus, equity and global), generally using no‑load/low‑load mutual funds and ETFs. The firm emphasizes systematic timing indicators for each asset class, tailored investment policy statements, and regular portfolio reviews, and notes that some aggressive strategies and hedging components are restricted to hedge funds or accredited investors.

Distinctive features include a team member who holds a Series 3 commodity futures registration and the firm’s confirmation that futures contracts are among permitted investments, and the brochure discloses that performance‑based fee arrangements are optionally available to qualified clients (typically using a high‑watermark method). The firm also discloses an instance of an advisor’s involvement in cryptocurrency arbitrage and a temporary reassignment of that advisor’s client duties while the activity was ongoing, signaling exposure to less‑typical trading activities for a firm of its size.

Not sure where to start?

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.

Find your advisor

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
