Bio
Alan Rohrbach
It was always a pleasure providing Matthew with my perspective and market analysis, because he is one of those incredibly adept individuals who had already developed his own highly refined frame of reference for thorough macro-technical analysis of the markets. While the term 'markets' is considered too broad by many folks to apply to individual expertise, due to his education and professional evolution Matthew is one of those folks who sees the bigger 'country' and cross-asset class influences in a definitive manner. Highly developed technical trend insights support his clear perception of how the global capital markets 'clockwork' is evolving across time. Matthew is a very talented 'macro' thinker with excellent position implementation and risk management skills.
