Dr. Robert Finch has been a formidable platform trader since 1983.

Clearly, it is understood that there are illegal abuses [insider trading] in the financial, commodities, and currencies markets, … but holding that aside… THERE ARE various methodologies for legitimate trading in these enterprises…. 

The “simple” …. versus ... “advanced systematic trading” [algorithmic, technological high-speed data processing, profiling, probability projections, etc] …. are all varied and inconsistent.

Having stated the above, there is another aspect of platform trading which Dr. Finch holds to be of paramount importance…. 

           ... even superceding illicit insider trading.

That being,… “intuitive trading”, ,,, which takes into account all of the above,.. PLUS a special  “sense” of market conditions, predicated upon a host of  “non-market indicators”  (e.g. political climate, 

nations’ military involments/plans - public viability, state of food and resources availability etc.).

All these factors working toward a strategy of profitable perpetuation.

Applied correctly and “intuitively”…. a person can perceive market 

changes that few can recognize and capitalize upon. 

                  .... Hence, that's what makes Dr. Finch a brilliant and rare trader, indeed.
