Boundaries
Scope, conflicts and personal trading, stated plainly
- Boundaries
- Forecasting and decision support only. Clients make and execute all decisions. No discretion over, custody of, or trading of client capital. Bo Yoder is not registered as an investment adviser or commodity trading advisor.
- Conflicts
- Bo personally trades intraday S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures, so client work excludes those markets in those fast-moving intraday timeframes. Longer-term views on the indexes remain in scope.
- Separate practices
- Institutional consulting and individual-trader education are separate. They have different clients, different terms and no shared client data, and neither set of clients is named to the other. The individual-trader work is education about process only: no signals, no trade calls, and no discretion over anyone’s money.
- Personal trading
- Bo takes no position of his own in any market he forecasts for a client, in any asset class, until that client confirms they are fully positioned and their entry is complete.

A private conversation
If a written, dated view on levels, risk and exits could support your team’s decisions, I would welcome a private conversation. Inquiries are kept in confidence.
