Equities and Personal Trading Plan Instructor

Christopher Muldoon has 20 years of Wall Street experience. He is a graduate of Iona College. He has held NASD licenses series 7 and 63.

Upon graduating from college, Chris began his career at an institutional Hedge Fund. He was fortunate enough to work with some of the brightest and demanding Equity Traders. He was quickly promoted from Position and Sales Clerk to Assistant Trader then to Senior Trader. In addition to trading, Chris also supervised the training and education of new traders, as well as implemented trading strategies and risk parameters.

Chris founded his own proprietary trading firm that he actively manages today. He currently balances his trading and family life with teaching at Online Trading Academy. Chris believes that the best way to really know any subject matter is to teach it! Teaching tactical trading strategies and proper risk management to his students helps Chris to practice the same discipline in his own trading. One of Chris’s favorite quotes comes from Vince Lombardi: “They call it coaching but it is teaching. You do not just tell them… you show them the reasons.”
