About Ritch Wigham
I entered the brokerage industry 28 years ago in 1980 at age 23. Three years later I included my commodities accreditation and a year after that my Option license was achieved , eventually to become a Designated Registered Futures Principle.
My belief is that it is imperative to understand both the fundamental and technical nature of the markets.
During my last years of high school and into university (University of Saskatchewan/Saskatoon) I spent 5 summer exploration seasons working in Northern Canada doing grass-roots geological mapping and prospecting for commercial and government agencies (Noranda Exploration, Uranerz Exploration, Department of Mineral Resources/Province of Saskatchewan to name a few).
This is what stimulated my interest to pursue a career in the Financial Services Industry.
My specialties are of course in Mining and Oil and Gas, from grass-roots exploration all the way through development and advanced physical hedging. From equities to option writing strategies and currency and metals recommendations to enhance returns. And of course now this includes the use of ETF’s (Exchange Traded Funds) as a tool for portfolio management.
