He focuses on turning complex market structure into clear, repeatable processes so that everyday investors can pursue long-term goals with less noise, fewer impulse decisions, and more measurable outcomes.
Overview
Roland Haverford argues that sustained performance is built on process, not prediction. He sees markets as noisy but ultimately pattern-rich, and believes investors should respond with clear rules, diversified exposures, and strict risk limits. For him, the real win is not excitement but the ability to make steady decisions year after year.
- A Translate qualitative views into documented rules for entries, exits, and position sizing across multiple asset classes.
- B Use automation and tooling to enforce those rules consistently, minimizing delays, slippage, and emotion-driven overrides.
- C Review performance in multi-year cycles, adjusting models carefully while preserving core principles of diversification and capital preservation.
Born in Portland, Oregon, and formally trained in Business Management, Haverford combined early business exposure with structured analytical skills. In 2011 he founded EraMix Financial Union, scaling systematic training programs that have helped tens of thousands of participants adopt disciplined, rule-based approaches to modern markets.
