What makes us unique is we aim to understand the specific details of the farm operation you run. We take away the intimidation by formulating strategies that fit your objections and needs. A personable approach that allows you to take a proactive path in marketing.
We work in partnership with you as your advocate, looking out for your best interest in your operation. Understanding breakeven and where all the advantages and disadvantages align for profitability.
Using multiple data resources and technology, combined with years of experience, we breakdown the details of information that often can be a challenge. Developing risk management strategies through deep analysis of multiple risk factors facing the supply and demand exposures even months in away. We plan ahead for risk, while adjusting to current market conditions as needed.
We don’t expect you to keep a spreadsheet on the global demand or supply situation and how quickly it can change. Bringing you detailed perspective through regular communication and our weekly market newsletter is part of how we will keep you informed. Delivering you the important aspects of key reports and what the initial and long-term impact could be for your bottom-line is part of what we provide to clients.
Finding a specific plan to provide your operation with tools to limit risk and the uncertainty that can become extremely volatile in today’s commodity world, is what we strive to bring to the table. Finding innovative tools using futures or option strategies is one way to design a plan tailored to your needs. Constructing a custom plan to work with your breakeven risk while concentrating on improving margins is our goal for you.
No matter where you are at with your trading experience level, if you’re an agricultural producer needing a marketing plan, or a business person wanting to hedge inflation risk, we have the tools and experience to help you. We will take the time to work with you, to help you understand the process, and give you the tools you need.
You can find our weekly market summary comments in our newsletter on this website. We also add daily commentary on Twitter for timely market information. If your group is interested in an experienced speaker, talk to us and we will see if we can make it work.
We have worked with Scale Traders and other specialized trading systems for years. Being familiar with different trading systems that are technical and specific in how they work is important. We have the ability to be proactive in setting up a system and the components of it.
Providing data, marketing plans, and education is part of the big picture of working with Bullpen Trading LLC, but what we really enjoy the most is getting to know our clients! We pride ourselves in having multi-generational client families be part of our business. It is not uncommon to have a client text us pictures of the vacation they are experiencing, while knowing their positions in the markets are being watched over for their best interest. Clients come to us for the experienced help we provide them and become part of a long-term relationship!
