Once they were “dismissed” from Tastytrade/Tastylive I figured they were done. Nice to see them back. Figured it would happen eventually. I had the pleasure of meeting them both at one of their last live appearances with Tasty out in Denver a year or so ago. Listened to them every morning for years and still carry with me one of Tom’s favorites sayings…”duration over direction”.

What a career!

How I got here:

24 yrs old: Started at Drexel, then took the CBOE floor in 1981.

24–42: Two decades in the pits as a market maker, money manager, and owner of a prop trading firm.

42 yrs old: Co-founded thinkorswim with Scott Sheridan — the first platform to hand retail traders professional options tools.

50 yrs old: Took it public under the ticker SWIM.

52 yrs old: Sold thinkorswim to TD Ameritrade for $750M.

53 yrs old: Started tastytrade. Turned financial education into a live daily network.

He’s been on camera nearly every trading day for 15 years. Thousands of hours of it, almost none of it searchable.

Trade small. Trade often. And never listen to anyone, including me.
