Founder & CEO, i10 Research

Aaron Uitenbroek built i10 Research on a simple conviction: the market itself is the most reliable analyst in the room.

After studying business, entrepreneurship, and engineering at the University of Iowa (1993-1998), Aaron entered institutional finance with a quantitative focus that set him apart from the narrative-driven mainstream. Over the past fifteen-plus years, he has provided institutional-grade market analysis to investment banks, hedge funds, and wirehouses -- research read daily by thousands of investment professionals worldwide.

His technical contributions to the industry are substantial:

  • Bloomberg Terminal Indicator Suite -- Developed a professional suite of 13 chart-based indicators available to Bloomberg subscribers globally
  • eSignal VAP Pro Volume Profile Tool -- Created the volume-at-price analysis tool for Interactive Data Corporation's eSignal platform, giving traders direct access to institutional-quality volume profiling
  • S&P Capital IQ MarketScope Advisor -- Built analysis for one of the industry's leading advisor research platforms
  • Commodity Risk Management -- Served as Senior Agricultural Risk Manager, applying quantitative methods to commodity trading and hedging strategies

Aaron has provided institutional-grade market structure analysis to Wall Street for more than 15 years, earning a reputation for consistent, objective, and timely insights. He previously held FINRA Series 3, 30, and 34 licenses and brings over 20 years of technology leadership -- scaling startups, guiding complex transformations, and delivering solutions for Fortune 500 clients. That rare combination of deep financial markets expertise and systems-level thinking is what shapes i10's approach: rigorous methodology, delivered with precision and consistency.

His analysis and commentary have been featured on Fox Business, CNBC, and Bloomberg, and published or cited in Barron's. Aaron is also an active speaker and presenter for professional advisor organizations including PMI (Portfolio Management Institute) and the Academy of Certified Portfolio Managers (ACPM), and his research is available on platforms including Bloomberg Terminal, MarketScope Advisor, and TD Ameritrade.

Why i10 Exists

Most market research suffers from the same fundamental flaw: it relies on derivatives of price -- moving averages, oscillators, pattern recognition -- that are mathematically lagged and inherently subjective. Advisors and portfolio managers deserve better. Their clients deserve better.

i10 Research was founded to solve that problem.

Aaron Uitenbroek spent years watching the industry anchor investment decisions to tools that, by construction, tell you where the market has been rather than where structural risk and opportunity actually reside. Traditional technical analysis methods like RSI, MACD, and moving averages are all calculated from historical price. They are derivatives. They lag.

Volume-at-price data is different. It is not a derivative of price -- it is primary market data. It measures where institutional capital has actually been committed, mapping the precise levels where consensus exists and structural risk thresholds lie. This data is 100% objective and 100% market-generated.

i10 Research was built to bring this institutional-grade analysis to every professional allocator -- not just the quantitative trading desks and hedge funds that have used it for decades, but to the financial advisors, wealth managers, and portfolio strategists who need defensible, auditable research they can stand behind.

Today, i10 serves subscribers at the largest wirehouses in the country, including Morgan Stanley and Merrill Lynch, alongside independent RIAs, family offices, and institutional trading operations. The analysis covers more than twenty markets across equities, fixed income, commodities, currencies, and digital assets.

Our Mission

Deliver 100% objective, market-generated intelligence that helps professional allocators identify bias, manage risk, and act with confidence -- before key levels are reached, not after.

We adhere to a data-driven, quantitative approach and processes that are proven, consistent, and robust. This allows us to deliver analysis and results that are accurate, reliable, and that give our clients a meaningful analytical advantage grounded in market-generated data.

Objectivity First

Every piece of analysis is grounded in market-generated data. No opinions, no narratives, no conflicts of interest. The market tells us what it knows -- our job is to translate that into actionable intelligence.

Fiduciary Alignment

Financial advisors carry a fiduciary obligation to act in their clients' best interest. Our research is built to support that standard -- defensible, auditable, and free from the subjective biases that undermine traditional analysis.

Ahead of the Move

Volume-at-price analysis reveals where institutional capital has committed. By analyzing this data, we make clients aware of key price locations before they are reached -- providing guidance that fundamental-only or traditional technical analysis completely misses.

Independent RIAs rely on i10 for objective market structure analysis that complements their fundamental research process -- providing the "when" and "where" that fundamental analysis alone cannot answer.

Institutional Trading Desks and Hedge Funds

Quantitative and discretionary trading operations use i10's volume-at-price levels for execution timing, risk management, and identifying asymmetric opportunities across asset classes.

Family Offices
