We know how to grow capital.
Simpson Capital, LLC understands the Derivatives industry like nobody else.
What makes us different?
We don't just study the markets — we operate inside them.
We trade global Derivatives in-house, using our own capital across real exchange networks every week — but it's not the act of trading that gave us our edge.
What sets us apart is the time spent in the hot seat, relentlessly questioning every assumption and reverse-engineering the system from the inside out.
While most participants rely on surface-level patterns or inherited theories, we built our understanding by seeking to understand why the market moves, challenging everything on the subject — and ultimately proving it in live markets.
Outside of Investment Banks and a few select institutional desks, it's rare to find firms who truly understand the entire system end-to-end. That’s because deliberate misinformation clouds the space — and for most, that’s by design.
Why it matters.
The Derivatives space is vast, fast-moving, and brutally competitive. Over $6 trillion USD changes hands daily. Yet despite its size, it remains misunderstood by the overwhelming majority of participants.
In 2023, we ran a global survey testing retail traders' knowledge of core market mechanics. Not a single respondent answered all questions correctly. In fact, not a single question was answered correctly by any respondent whatsoever. That confirmed what we’d long observed firsthand: the gap in understanding is systemic — most participants have no idea what they’re investing in.
Our Founder & CEO, Ryan Simpson, took a contrarian path starting in 2019. He rejected all widely taught trading education and set out to reverse-engineer the Derivatives market from the ground up.
By 2022, the results were clear:
His record had reached a 100% win rate — with zero losses taken since.
His brokerage firm began contacting him directly and regularly, urging him to upgrade to a Wholesale/Professional account due to the impact his trades were having on their books.
In this case, the broker was acting as Market Maker — meaning Ryan's execution was causing consistent losses for them directly.
This is the level of edge we bring to our clients.
We generate formidable returns in-house for our own internal portfolio, and now license our proprietary Live Order Feed to approved clients across the retail, commercial and institutional sectors.
Whether you're a high-performing individual investor, an SMSF, or managing institutional capital, our edge is your edge — and the results speak for themselves.
Meet the Founder & CEO
Ryan Simpson, pictured here in Simpson Capital, LLC’s headquarters in Finland, is originally from a small rural community in New Zealand. Despite living in Finland with his wife and two children nowadays, he has spent the majority of his life in the Southern Hemisphere, including nearly a decade in Australia.
Beginning his career path in the heavy industries as a Heavy Diesel Specialist Technician, and later a Heavy Machinery Operator and Road Train Operator, Ryan worked across New Zealand and Australia as both an employee and employer, covering a vast array of sectors and gaining a huge variety of experience, before deciding to follow his passion for numbers, charts, and all things finance.
He proudly attributes his ability to solve the Derivatives industry to his time as a Heavy Diesel Specialist Technician.
“In my previous career; in that trade, you figure things out. You don’t stop until you’ve solved the issue you need to solve, no matter how complex it is. This approach, along with my passion for understanding the inner workings of everything I have worked on, has brought me to where I am today. Those qualities got me here. I didn’t start in the Finance industry; I didn’t have the typical beginning. In fact, I had the complete opposite beginning. But I wouldn’t change it!”
“I built Simpson Capital, LLC to fix problems for people. Everyone wants to make more money, and many have capital that they would want to invest, but they don’t know who to trust.”
“You know my name. You know my face. Transparency is a big part of what we do; I know how important trust is to people.”
