Trading Instructor
Robert Heitner
ProActive Investor and Personal Trading Plan Instructor
Robert A Heitner, Financial Advisor, started his career in 1990, trading Stocks and Options for a small practice at the Chicago Board of Options
Exchange. Thirteen years as a Market Maker in various trading pits gave him the experience of identifying opportunities while having the ability to
reduce his risk. When trading groups started consolidating, he chose to explore entrepreneurial opportunities. He started a company remodeling hotels
and rehabbing single family rental properties.
Robert's interest in the financial industry never waned however, so when it was recommended to him, he decided to try asset management with a
Financial Advisory practice. Robert excelled at the Financial Planning aspect of being a Financial Advisor. After 2 years, Robert was asked to train other
financial practitioners on financial planning and how to add value to client relationships.
Robert is now bringing his Financial Planning and trading experience, that has helped him build his own client base, to Online Trading Academy. He
would like to educate others to make their own informed financial decisions.
