Since the early age of six years old, Mr Collard dreamed of being an Investment broker. He studied the Wall Street Journal from an early age and upon completing an undergraduate degree and post-graduate work in Finance, he embarked upon his dream at age 22.
Mr William R Collard III's experience ranges from working on the trading floor of the Chicago Board of Trade to managing an office for a large regional Securities firm. A third generation Investment broker, Mr Collard has held licenses in Stocks, Bonds, Mutual Funds, Insurance and Commodity Futures. He has been offered prestigious positions with many Major brokerage firms.
Realizing that Commodity Futures was his primary interest, he dropped his other licenses to become a Specialist in the Futures markets, rather than a "jack of all trades".
This decision has yielded a Veteran Commodity trader of over 40 years.

* Past Performance does not guarantee futures success. Risk is present in all Investments
The risk of loss in trading futures and/or options is substantial and each investor and/or trader must consider whether this is a suitable investment. Past performance, whether actual or indicated by simulated historical tests of strategies, is not indicative of futures results.
