About Eric Krown
For as long as I can remember I have been enamored with ‘Trading’ and the resulting lifestyle. As a young teen I was seduced by the excitement and electric nature of the business as I would shadow my father who was an active trader at the time. Ever since I was 11 years old I would spend my summers at the Pacific Stock Exchange (PCX) learning the Equity Options business. Years and years of spending time on the Floor until I took a 5 year hiatus to study at the University of Oregon while earning a Bachelors of Economics.
However, soon after graduating I felt it was my true calling to become a Trader. Thanks to some luck my former connections I made while clerking at the PCX led me to meet a mentor willing to take me under his wing and teach me Options. My adult life has been spent on the Floors of major U.S. Options Exchanges learning the Art of Technical Analysis and the Art of Trading from several of the best Traders in the world. During my time as a Market Maker Authorized Trader (MMAT) in Equity Options on both New York Stock Exchange ARCA (NYSE Arca) I learnt from the very best of the best to make trading as a living a reality for my post-college self. After years under these Master’s mentor-ship I felt ready to take the reigns and begun coming up with my own evolved strategies unique to myself. A couple years later, I ventured my way forth into the realm of trading Cryptocurrencies which is where I spent my time now as I feel the opportunity and excitement is unmatched by any other traditional venue of trading.
It is my purpose in life to not only be an ever Student in the Mastery of Trading but to also share the ideas, thought processes and strategies that have led to my success with those that desire a similar lifestyle to my own.
I hope to pass on these lessons to the best of my ability.
