I covered the RIA landscape options in 2009 when I departed as a Club level Producer at UBS and just recently the entire RIA landscape before I made another move from RIA to RIA. I can share my market intelligence and also touch on Investacorp

Reach me. I’m experienced at making the move.

I have found that established advisors avoid broker dealers like Investacorp and instead go the independent RIA route. That doesn’t mean they start their own RIA. Because of scale it typically makes more sense to join a large established RIA.

Thank you in advance.

I’m seeing lots of posts about really bad losses. If you trade you’re going to lose money - hopefully not all the time, but many positions will be mistakes. But you need a process to find ideas and manage positions. Two books you should read are “The New Trading for a Livinng” and “The Laws of Trading.” Both look at psychology, process, and risk in different ways that can help you work out your own process. The next 18 months will be much harder than the last 18 - time to start learning.
