About
Investment Strategies, LLC provides comprehensive portfolio management and integrated financial planning to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, and business entities. The firm manages about $76.7 million on a discretionary basis for roughly 22 clients and generally charges fees based on assets under management.
The firm applies a combination of fundamental, technical and cyclical analysis and implements both long‑ and short‑term strategies, including trading, margin use, short sales and a range of option strategies; accounts are reviewed at least monthly. Financial planning and consulting — covering retirement, estate, tax, education, corporate structure, real estate analysis, mortgage/debt and insurance evaluations — are included as part of the comprehensive portfolio management service.
What is distinctive is the firm’s explicit use of derivatives and option strategies within separately managed accounts, alongside margin and short‑selling, which is uncommon for similarly sized supported firms. The advisory team also operates as registered representatives and licensed insurance agents, and includes credentialed professionals (a CPA with a Personal Financial Specialist designation and a Registered Social Security Analyst), indicating the firm blends tax, Social Security optimization and insurance capabilities with its portfolio management.

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.
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
