Bruce is a career trader and began his trading journey shortly after the Crash of 87. He started his career working for a Wall Street firm on a bond desk. After several years trading bonds, he switched to the equity side. He began his love of trading equities and options early on and traded IPOs, secondaries, and preferreds. In the early days, he actually had to hand-write tickets to buy and sell securities. Over the years, he worked for several Wall Street firms, managing institutional money as well as retail accounts. Bruce developed a love for options and the Income Style of Trading as a result of continuously trading through the Gulf War, the Dot.com bubble, 9/11, the Economic Crisis of 2008, the Flash Crash, as well as many other milestones. Bruces love for teaching led him to be a mentor and coach to many fellow financial consultants over the years. With the development of trading software and platforms over the last ten years, Bruce has been able to refine, tweak, and improve his trading prowess. He has always had a passion for helping others to learn the skills of trading and become better traders. He found a great fit with Simpler Options and enjoys living in Austin, Texas. Words to Live By: Courageous convictions will drag your dreams into existence. Trading Words to Live By: Trading is a journey, never stop learning. Hobbies: I have a wonderful wife of 5 years and a beautiful 2 year old daughter. We enjoy traveling together and on down time, my passion is playing guitar and restoring classic cars.less
