Tony Kolton retired from options floor trading on the Chicago Board of Options Exchange in 1988 in order to start LIM, Inc. and invent the "Market Information Machine" ("MIM"), a tool that allows you to ask any question about any market and obtain an instant answer. The MIM also has an automatic chart overlay feature called "analog" that allows you to match up current chart patterns with ones in the past, and predict what will "happen next" if history repeats. Tony compared what was then the present day chart of IBM in 1987, with that of GM in 1929, to heavily short IBM in 1987, and he actually flourished in the 1987 stock market crash. What Tony did by hand and took many hours to do in 1987, can now take less than one minute with the MIM.

Tony has a BS degree in Accounting, has a CPA Certificate, a MS Degree in Taxation and a JD Degree in Law. However, Tony says he's most proud of the practical experience he gained trading the markets, which led to the creation of the MIM.
