David Jones, who holds the position of Chief Market Strategist at retail brokerage Capital.com, has resigned from his post and will part with the company on Friday, according to a Linkedin update.
“After more than four years, this week is my last one at Capital.com,” he wrote in a Linkedin post.
He joined the broker in May 2018 and is based in London. Now, he is taking a break and hinted to be working on an industry-related personal project.
“It has been something of a roller coaster since 2018, with seldom a dull moment – but I decided a few months ago it was time for some new challenges,” he added.
“I’m looking forward to a break – and then doing some projects on my own around client education, amongst other things. If you think there could be an opportunity for us to work together, then do get in touch.”
