Senior Broker and Market Strategist
Author of the Cullen Outlook
My career began by working with equities and equity options at Charles Schwab. Since then I have held various positions within the financial industry, from head clerk on a high volume trading desk on the floor of the CBOE to being a “market maker” for a proprietary trading firm in the SPX and OEX pits. I branched off to expand my horizons and transitioned into the futures market as a retail broker. More recently, I was a senior broker for Lind-Waldock and their Private Client Group division dealing exclusively in the commodity markets.
I joined Daniels Trading to expand my added value services as a broker and to build my client base in new areas. With Daniels Trading’s diversified execution categories, the opportunities for my client are endless.
My goal is to work with my clients to focus on one main principle: Staying true to the principles of successful trading.
- Make informed and decisive trades during both calm and volatile markets.
- Conquer the pitfalls of successful trading: greed and fear.
- To be confident and in control when establishing a new trade or exiting an existing position.
While authoring my newsletter, I am involved in a variety of commodity markets depending on chart formations and set-ups. I work very closely with my broker-assisted clients to find out which markets provide suitable opportunity for them. For my self-directed clients, I provide broker services based on their needs.
When not trading the markets you can most assuredly find me with my family or at a ballgame.

"Why I Chose DT" Responses from Brian's Clients:
"… I moved to Daniels Trading because … I need a trading company and broker who really know what they are doing and responsive (as in seconds) to my basic trading questions (e.g. margin, open interest, etc.). I called and [spoke with] Mr. Brian Cullen who is succinct and “right on” in his answers so I can make immediate decisions. I highly recommend Daniels Trading to anyone, whether beginner or a veteran at commodities. It is a wonderful business but you MUST have the right brokerage!"
"I chose Daniels Trading because of friendly service and the many tools offered to help in my due diligence. "
"I am a GBE member and Daniels Trading was recommended. Being a newbie trader, I wanted a trading company familiar with trading technics GBE uses. Fortunately, I began trading with Brian Cullen, and he is very patient, extremely helpful and very knowledgeable. Above all else, he is a professional trader and knows how to treat new members coming on board! I am learning to use the trading platforms to keep me informed as well!"
"… Brian was a recommended broker with GBE, and he knows their trading methods. I am comfortable working with him, and we have a good relationship. Thank you. "
"[I chose Daniels Trading because] of the recommendation by “GBE” (Greatest Business on Earth), a commodities education/training and charting service. I’m very happy that the first person I spoke with at Daniels Trading was Brian Cullen. Brian took the time necessary to answer my questions and place my trades. In the “rat race” environment of a brokerage firm, it is refreshing to know there is a broker who will give you more than thirty seconds of their time if you need it. "
"… GBE recommended Daniels Trading, thus establishing my first contact with Brian Cullen. … The support, encouragement and tolerance I received from Brian was nothing less from excellent."
"As a beginner I was happy to find a knowledgeable broker who was willing to work with me. Brian Cullen takes time daily to discuss specific trade ideas and he keeps me informed on status of current trades. I can reach him anytime. Brian is plugged into the markets and understands how one thing affects another. I make the decisions but Brian provides an immense amount of pertinent information in a timely manner. I like fairly low risk trades and Brian's guidance helps keep me out of trouble--we don't trade just to trade. He is always very clear about risk, reward and objective. I recommend Brian Cullen and Daniels Trading for the high level of service they provide."
"Over the many years, I have interviewed a few brokers. Each encounter made me even more shy and anxious about having to talk with the next one. When they found out that I was paper trading, they seemed to brush me off. My experience with a Daniels Trading broker was pleasantly different. The broker immediately took an interest from the first phone call. Sharing, how he could help me at many different levels of instruction, and education. I was free to choose how much help I wanted. I felt comfortable with this broker right from my first phone call. He has been VERY patient with me over the past year practicing my paper trading. Checking in with me to see how I was doing. He actually cared whether I did good or not. He would send out information to me and recommend books to read that went along with the types of trading I was interested in. He said, this is his job to create a good relationship with me. So when the time comes to make the transition from paper to real trading it is as smooth as possible. He has said many times, he wants the experience of trading to be a fun positive experience and for me to do well. As he promised, it has. Since I have such a good relationship with my broker I worried, what would happen if he were not available? I found out I did not have to worry. There was always a friendly, capable broker ready to help me with my questions or trades when my broker was not available. I heartily recommend Daniels Trading even for the extremely timid. You will be well taken care of. :-)"
"... Brian Cullen is the perfect broker for me."
"As relative newcomer to futures trading, I appreciate the personable and informative advice and ready responsiveness of the firm and my broker. There is a real positive interaction between broker and client as well as 'excellence in execution'."
"My broker is very helpful, as a result I do not have any problem getting my orders filled. He also cautions me not to over trade. Total experience makes me feel like I am a partner, which is what every client [should] expect from a brokerage. "
"... We approached [another brokerage] prior to Daniel's Trading but we were not satisfied with the customer service they provided. They seemed quite cold. "
"A number or years ago, I did some commodity trading with a different broker who's ethics I began to question. As a result, I started looking for something better (more trust worthy & professional). I have found Daniels Trading to not only fit that mold, but to be of service to my needs from early morning to late in the day. Now, if only they could show me how to make all winners and no losers. Hmmm! "
"I like the dt trading platform and I get good service from my broker."

"I chose Daniels Trading because of their honesty and performance. Ultimately, the final decision is always yours when you place a trade. The Daniels broker is always available day or night for support to help you with the analysis of your decision if needed. I have been working with Brian Cullen for some time now. He is not only my broker but a trusted partner in my business of trading. Yes, trading must be treated as a business and I couldn't ask for a more knowledgeable and honest partner then my Daniels Trading broker. "
