"It is vitally important for a client to have confidence that all of his or her needs will be met. Listening to a client is the best way to ensure that he or she will receive the best service possible."

John Ryan
John Ryan grew up in the northern suburbs of Chicago and watched his father, a trader at the Chicago Board of Trade, go to work as each day. From an early age, he saw the excitement and opportunity that the markets provided. John knew he wanted to be involved someday too.
In high school, John worked on the trading floor as a runner and clerk. Then, after graduating from Marquette University with a degree in Economics, he saved some money and began his career as a trader in the pits of the Chicago Board of Trade. As technology evolved and the markets drifted toward computer-based trading, John too moved from the trading floor to screen-based trading.
John's decision to begin working at Daniels Trading was an easy one. In his own words, "Daniels' commitment to quality and customer service is second to none, and I'm proud to be a part of the team." John understands that a strong trusting relationship between broker and customer is vital, and he desires to be available to answer any questions or concerns his customer may have.
While John's traded everything from gold to soybeans, the debt market and the financial indexes have been his main areas of concentration. Using a combination of technical and fundamental analysis to study the markets, John believes that research is only as good as the person who is analyzing it.
