Before becoming one of the most influential financial technical analysts, JC Parets was a middle-relief pitcher at Fairfield University – a role that taught him the discipline of adapting under pressure.

JC’s financial career began in 2003 as a Merrill Lynch intern during Wall Street’s sales-driven heyday.

Frustrated by the industry’s reliance on narratives instead of data, he pursued and earned the Chartered Market Technician (CMT) designation in 2006.

He made a name for himself by predicting the 2008 financial crisis. While others panicked, JC leveraged price action, relative strength, and momentum to navigate the chaos.

His success caught the attention of institutional investors, and he has since gone on to serve 500+ institutions, including banks, billionaires, and massive hedge funds.

His NO-BS approach to the markets has made him a fixture on Bloomberg, CNBC’s Fast Money, CNN, Fox Business, and The Wall Street Journal.

And has been asked to speak at institutions like Harvard, Duke, NYU, the University of Chicago, and Hong Kong Baptist University.

Graduating with a business degree from the highly rated Indiana University Kelley School of Business, Bryan got his first job out of college trading stock options on the floor of the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE).

There, he was mentored by one of the country’s top floor traders in the heart of the technology boom from 1999 to 2000, trading in the crowded and lively Apple computer pit. Executing his trades in real time, Bryan learned to identify and implement some of his most powerful trading secrets… secrets that rarely make their way outside the CBOE to individual traders.

Recognizing the actual value of these methods, Bryan tapped into his entrepreneurial spirit to take a risk. In 2006, he walked off the CBOE floor and entered the world of financial research...

And ever since Bryan has helped hundreds of thousands of traders by providing his precise trading instructions to a small, elite group– most who joined him on day one and have been followers ever since.

As a so-called “play tactician,” Bryan uses his hands-on knowledge of floor trading to shape opportunities and chart formations into elegant, powerful and profitable recommendations. And by using the same hedging techniques taught by professional floor traders.

Along the way, Bryan has developed a cumulative track record that could impress even the most successful hedge fund manager.

In 2019, he co-founded the Monument Traders Alliance and now spends his days running one of the most elite trading research chatrooms ever created, The War Room.
