Using his own formula, he found that he could make more money and take less risk, regardless of market performance. In 2004 he used this algorithm to build one of the first online financial technology platforms.<\/p>\n<p>The platform worked so well he made it available to individual investors. In 2013 he founded TradeSmith, which started as a simple way to track portfolios and evolved into a powerful suite of risk-management and portfolio analysis tools. The company grew to over 30,000 investors who entrusted his technology with a staggering $20 billion, earning him the moniker \u201cdoctor of uncertainty.\u201d After 16 successful years, he sold TradeSmith at the top of the market.<\/p>\n<p>Never one to sit idle, Richard\u2019s newest endeavor, RiskSmith, levels the playing field for individual investors.<\/p>\n<p>Synthesizing his passion for simplifying complex financial markets and his background in mathematics and systems science, Richard has created tools that help investors better understand and evaluate risk in the market.<\/p>\n<p>According to Richard, \u201cMost people have no idea how powerful of a tool good risk management really is. They look at risk as something to stay away from. In fact, it\u2019s exactly the opposite. Once you understand risk, you can control it. By taking smart risks, you can truly transform your financial future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Richard studied mathematics at U.C. Berkeley and earned his PhD in Systems Science from the Watson School of Engineering at SUNY Binghamton under the late Professor George Klir.<\/p>\n<p>Richard is also Chairman of the Board and CEO of Foundation for the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/cycles.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Study of Cycles<\/a><\/strong>, an international nonprofit that promotes and conducts research of cycles and how they can be used to make the world a better place<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"twitter-follow-button\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Investing_Dr\" data-size=\"large\" data-show-count=\"false\">Follow @Investing_Dr<\/a><script src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" async=\"\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Looking for style diversification?<\/strong> More information on the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thedisciplinedinvestor.com\/blog\/tdi-strategy\/\">TDI Managed Growth Strategy<\/a> <\/strong>&#8211; https:\/\/thedisciplinedinvestor.com\/blog\/tdi-strategy\/<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/envestology.com\/\">eNVESTOLOGY<\/a> Info<\/strong> &#8211; https:\/\/envestology.com\/<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Friday Pre-Market Run-Down Webinar <a href=\"https:\/\/www.triggercharts.com\/webinar-pre-market-rundown-fridays\/\">Registration <\/a><\/strong>&#8211; https:\/\/www.triggercharts.com\/webinar-pre-market-rundown-fridays\/<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Stocks mentioned in this episode: (BTCUSD), (AMC), (GME), (AAPL)<\/p>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_1574\"><a href=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/tdi_podcast\/thedisciplinedinvestor.com\/blog\/podcasts\/tdi_episode759.mp3\" title=\"Play\" onclick=\"return powerpress_embed_html5a('1574','https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/tdi_podcast\/thedisciplinedinvestor.com\/blog\/podcasts\/tdi_episode759.mp3');\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thedisciplinedinvestor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/powerpress\/TDI_PlayPodcast-679.png\" title=\"Play\" alt=\"Play\" style=\"border:0;\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_links_mp3\" style=\"margin-bottom: 1px !important;\">Podcast: <a href=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/tdi_podcast\/thedisciplinedinvestor.com\/blog\/podcasts\/tdi_episode759.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_pinw\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Play in new window\" onclick=\"return powerpress_pinw('https:\/\/thedisciplinedinvestor.com\/blog\/?powerpress_pinw=55196-podcast');\" rel=\"nofollow\">Play in new window<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/tdi_podcast\/thedisciplinedinvestor.com\/blog\/podcasts\/tdi_episode759.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_d\" title=\"Download\" rel=\"nofollow\" download=\"tdi_episode759.mp3\">Download<\/a> (Duration: 1:00:31 &#8212; 55.7MB)<\/p><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_subscribe_links\">Subscribe: <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/5vtvEVDPUi4221imwhXyXt\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_spotify\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe on Spotify\" rel=\"nofollow\">Spotify<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/tunein.com\/podcasts\/Markets-and-Investing\/The-Disciplined-Investor-p414586\/\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_tunein\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe on TuneIn\" rel=\"nofollow\">TuneIn<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/thedisciplinedinvestor.com\/blog\/feed\/podcast\/\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_rss\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe via RSS\" rel=\"nofollow\">RSS<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/thedisciplinedinvestor.com\/blog\/subscribe-to-podcast\/\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_more\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"More\" rel=\"nofollow\">More<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From Trounce to Bounce \u2013 Markets have a change in direction.
