Darrin Eakins Wilmington NC
Darrin Eakins is a transition specialist. After being forced to leave his previous career as an orthopedic physician due to disability and illness, he pursued new hobbies and career possibilities in stock trading and investing. Having more time for activities has let him acquire a passion for pickleball and rekindle a familial love of art.
​
Much of his current work, including biomedical stock analysis, is informed by his past as an orthopedic physician. This specialty analytical profession investigates the investment possibilities of pharmaceutical and biotech firms. From a surgeon's perspective, Eakins can study items in development from numerous businesses from multiple views and identify whether buying is a good moment.
​
His stock market interest extends beyond medical equities, and he has become an avid futures trader. Successful futures trading necessitates in-depth market knowledge and the ability to spot good possibilities. Traders may buy futures contracts to protect themselves against market swings or to speculate. When a futures contract expires, one must be able to speculate on the future price of a stock index or commodity rather than owning an individual stock.
​
