Triex Financial Services, Inc.

Triex Financial Services provides discretionary, fee-only investment management to individuals, pension and profit-sharing plans, trusts, estates and charitable organizations, focusing on proprietary mutual fund and ETF allocation strategies. The firm does not market itself as a comprehensive financial planning, estate planning, or accounting practice, though it may provide limited consulting and may engage sub-advisors or separate-account managers when appropriate.

The firm’s investment approach is explicitly market-timing and quantitatively driven: its Active NDX, Active SPX and Active Technical strategies generate daily buy/sell signals based on moving averages, standard deviations, percentage-change metrics and other technical models. Portfolios are implemented primarily through long, inverse and enhanced (leveraged) mutual funds and ETFs and may include short positions, margin and frequent trading to pursue defined conservative, moderate or aggressive risk/return objectives.

Distinctive features for a firm of this size include a small asset base and client roster (roughly $1.6 million in AUM across about 25 accounts) and the principal’s substantial non‑investment commitment to a charitable foundation (reported as about 40% of their time). The firm also discloses that it may enter limited performance‑based arrangements with eligible clients, permits clients to impose written restrictions (including excluding inverse/leveraged strategies), and reports all managed assets on a discretionary basis.
