Richard graduated from Portland State University with a B.S. degree in International Economics and spent three years in USMC as an officer, serving in Vietnam as a combat engineer, and was highly decorated.

He is a fundamental trader, but uses technical trading as part of his overall trading style, striving to use spreads as a basis for his trading opportunities and relying a lot on his “trading instinct” which is hard to define, but could be best summed up to his 40 years of experience, where each year is a new learning experience. He has served as an arbitrator for the NFA and is currently Series 3, 30, 7, and 65 registered.
