About Nic Chahine

I am from Main Street not from Wall street yet I have a 90% success rate on credit spreads. Prior to trading full time, I climbed the ranks of the corporate finance world. Then in 2000, I branched out with an internet venture as CFO/COO. The venture paid off well enough to allow me to start my own fund and pursue my passion: the stock market. Since then, I have been honing my skills profiting from market investments like the ones I cover here. I consider success when I can identify an opportunity, gauge the risks involved, then finally set it up to yield its maximum potential. In addition to my trading skills, I feel that my diverse background (Electrical Engineer with an M.B.A.) gives me an edge: my engineering degree serves me well when it comes to technology related trades (most of our world is technically based these day); My Mediterranean background gives me an edge in geo-political issues that will affect almost every trade; My graduate degree gives me the ability to assess macro issues and their impact on our financial world.
