Our story: From Wall Street experience to independent research
While working on Wall Street, Stephen Suttmeier built a reputation for delivering high-quality technical research and supporting investors with clear, actionable insights.
Over time, he recognized the limitations of large organizations—where scale, competing priorities, and legacy structures made it difficult to innovate and adapt research delivery to how investors prefer to consume information.
Suttmeier Technical Strategies was created to solve that problem.
Partnering with Jennifer Suttmeier, an entrepreneur and Director of Operations, STS was built as an independent platform designed to deliver the same depth of expertise—while rethinking how research is delivered, accessed, and applied.
Through the expansion of the Straight from the Chart blog, TechSpeak 101, and a streamlined subscriber dashboard, Suttmeier Technical Strategies provides comprehensive market coverage and a more flexible, user-focused approach to technical analysis.
