Kirk began in the futures industry under the tutelage of a former currency trader with the Bank of Montreal.  Expanding upon his knowledge of the currency markets, he then began working for a cash grain dealer, building an intimate knowledge of the grains and agricultural commodities, and their technical behaviors over time.

Whether you are a one-lot or one hundred-lot trader, Kirk will take the time to discuss your goals for your account and help you to build a trading plan that suits your needs.  Since he is a trader himself, Kirk understands the difficulties in trading the markets and uses his own experiences to help his clients.

Kirk is an accomplished musician, as well as an avid reader.  He spends his spare time trying to fool trout with a fly rod and enjoying all the many natural attractions that Utah has to offer.

Steve joins CSC with a background in the "funny mentals" of the grain markets.  At CSC, we are also glad Steve knows a thing or two about technical analysis as well.  Combining both in his trading style.  After graduating from the University of Montana, Steve spent 8 years working for the agri-business giant Cargill, Inc.  He held various trading positions such as the Senior Merchant in charge of their North West Corn and Barley positions.  By the time he left Cargill, Inc. Steve was the Merchandising Manager in charge of the Southwest region out of Omaha. From 1981 to 1991, Steve worked for Tradewest Brokerage Company - Portland, Oregon office - where he was in charge of trading and brokering the company’s expansive Wheat positions, as well as expanding the brokerage, consulting, and hedging business. After running his own agri-business consulting and hedging company, Steve still advises elevator and farming concerns on various hedging and trading programs to maximize production and returns.  He also works with speculative clients seeking high returns with well rounded risk control. With the last of his children out of college, Stephen enjoys golfing, collecting fine wines, and spending time with his wife of 30 years.

Rick has two degrees from Brigham Young University: a BA in Spanish in 1989 and an MBA with Beta Gamma Sigma honors in 1994.  In his MBA studies he emphasized the capital markets and finance.  Rick spent three years working in the stock brokerage business, three years as a mortgage loan officer and other positions in the finance industry.  Rick has been an observer of the markets for many years and has decided to redirect his career into the commodity markets because of the opportunities  he anticipates in these markets for the next several years.  Rick believes that a disciplined trader can be profitable even in the most difficult markets.

In his spare time Rick enjoys playing chess, reading, and spending time with his family.  He currently teaches chess to children at the Orem Public Library.  He sees an analogy between chess and successful trading:

“In chess, both players have access to the same information.  The winner is generally the one who sees more deeply into the position.  Aggressive speculative play is flashy but at its highest levels, great chess is about great defense.  Only one world champion in recent memory was an attacker, the rest were defensive players.  In the same way, most traders have access to the same information.  The successful trader is generally the one who sees more deeply into current market conditions and plays great “defense”, that is, proper money management and an awareness of trader psychology.”
