About – Biography

TraderStef pursued a career within the NYC investment banking industry beginning in 1996 where she developed a diverse skillset and earned accomplishments while working with C-level Wall Street talent in executive administration, human resourcing, the registered representatives “bullpen” trading floor, technology and communication, training education and development, business analysis, and global risk management. She began investing in precious metals in 1999 while following financial market trends during the Dotcom bubble and post-9/11, then exited the corporate rat race during the later days of the great financial crisis after five years in risk management.

As an independent investor-trader and polymath, she was mentored while cutting technical analysis teeth in a live trading room venue for three years and developed and hosted a live “Precious Hour” webinar. A BFA with high honors from a premier visual arts institution and financial industry background afforded her an uncanny ability to easily recognize complex stock chart patterns in combination with tweaked technical indicators. The Precious Hour (now the Trading Workshop) specialized in gold and silver, mining stocks, and general stock market equities, combined with research on industry fundamentals, global news, geopolitics, and monetary policy, otherwise known as fusion analysis.

TraderStef now resides in the Live Free or Die state of New Hampshire and can be reached via the Contact page. Her charting has promulgated through social and financial media platforms since 2013, interviewed as a regular guest on live talk-radio and financial publications, provides market analysis (charts) behind the scenes upon request, hosts a webinar-based trading workshop for those who aspire to be a seasoned trader, and is a freelance contributing editor on financial matters and world events.
