About
The firm provides discretionary investment management to a small set of individual and business clients, with primary emphasis on U.S. equities, ETFs and listed equity options. Services are delivered under written investment management agreements with periodic account reviews and reporting.
The firm’s investment approach emphasizes systematic and quantitative methods, offering distinct strategies such as long-only, long-short, short-term trading, index/options income strategies, and tactical ETF allocation and rotation; fundamental and quantitative analysis inform model signals and allocations. It tailors portfolios to client objectives and risk tolerances and makes use of options and short exposure for hedging and alpha generation, while offering performance-based fee arrangements to qualified clients and maintaining policies to manage side-by-side conflicts.
Compared with peers of similar size, the firm is notable for operating under a single controlling principal/CCO with a compact advisory team while supporting multiple, relatively sophisticated strategies that include shorting and options trading. The firm also discloses that its principal engages in separate commodity trading advisory activities and accounting work, and it has established trade-allocation and supervisory procedures to address the attendant 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.
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
