About
Tradewinds Investment Advisors, LLC provides separate-account investment management primarily to individuals and individual trusts and states it is seeking to serve institutional investors including corporations, pension and profit-sharing plans, 401(k) plans, foundations, endowments, and estates. The firm manages assets using publicly traded equities, fixed income, mutual funds, ETFs, ETNs and options in trading-only accounts and is registered with Kansas and Minnesota.
Portfolios are constructed around client-specific factors such as age, purpose of the funds, risk tolerance, income and withdrawal needs, with an emphasis on asset allocation and diversification (the adviser identifies a typical equity holding range of 20–30 names). The investment process combines fundamental analysis for security selection with technical analysis for trade timing, and the adviser accepts limited discretionary authority to trade on clients’ behalf.
Compared with many solo independent advisers, Tradewinds explicitly offers and is pursuing institutional portfolio management despite its modest scale (about $2.34 million in assets across eight client accounts as of year-end 2025). The firm also documents several formal controls — a $25,000 surety bond, $1,000,000 professional liability insurance, pre‑clearance and reporting for personal trades, a proxy‑voting policy, and the use of Charles Schwab Advisor Services for custody and execution — that distinguish its operational practices from many peers.

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
