About

Guidance Capital provides investment advisory and related services to individuals, high-net-worth clients, trusts, estates, businesses and retirement plans, offering discretionary portfolio management, financial planning and retirement-plan advisory services. The firm bills on a percentage-of-assets basis and delivers ongoing monitoring and reporting, including performance reporting for retirement plans.

The advisor constructs customized, primarily long-term portfolios using diversified mutual funds, ETFs, individual stocks and bonds, and employs both fundamental and technical analysis; it may rebalance or sell positions for tax, risk or cash needs. Guidance Capital may allocate all or a portion of client assets to other managers or platforms (including affiliated sub‑advisers) and performs initial and ongoing oversight of those managers.

The brochure discloses a cluster of affiliated businesses and dual roles that distinguish the firm: owners also operate affiliated RIAs (Dynamic MarketAdvantage, LLC and DMLO Wealth Planning, LLC) and an accounting/tax affiliate (Guidance Tax Management Group, LLC) that may provide tax preparation or estate‑planning services (including free services to certain clients), and some advisory personnel are registered representatives and licensed insurance professionals. These relationships, together with the firm’s institutional custodial relationship and the firm’s practice of providing periodic performance reporting while not charging performance‑based fees or operating proprietary funds, are explicitly disclosed as potential conflicts of interest.

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
