BACKGROUND
As a young trader Vincent was fortunate to have some extremely good teachers. Mentors include Martin Shafiroff, Roy Neff, Global Heads of GSCI et al, Market Wizard Larry Benedict, and other legends with whom he still collaborates. They helped him create a knowledge-base and synthesize abilities in a way few can6.

Vince, in all fairness I have learned so much from you so far. I truly think you are a walking encyclopedia when it comes to trading. And you taught us how to differentiate those who benefit from misleading us. And how to filter major media news. People do a lot for the money. I pray we preserve our integrity, and keep our dignity. And beat them at their own game if we can.- H

He also traded counter to some of the biggest names in Gold, Silver, Oil, and Nat Gas where much “learning” was done. Vincent’s own gift is an ability to translate these lessons for others. During my career I’ve taught future multi-millionaires how to trade and designed/created trading platforms like ICE’s Options software. Frankly, there is little I have not seen or been in the middle of in Commodity markets from: pit to screen, witness to victim of manipulation, and sqeezee to squeezor. Now, I enjoy writing and teaching. Finally, he is passionate about leveled playing fields for investors.
