He (maybe in Alchemy of Finance?) or someone close to him admitted that his net currency trading pnl over time was negative

Ask Japan, where his loss was bigger than his gain on the pound trade...

He was more of a fundamentals/scuttle-butt/'edge' only, doesn't know how to read a chart, just like Soros who is famous for his inability to make money in FX. That said, I'm a big fan of Stan
