You put your clients money into JWH's Global Analytics Program . I knew it !!!

You do write...I'll give you that.....as far as the other 2....well........ :)

I hear ya....I lived there for about ten yrs....havent been back there too much since I moved 4 yrs ago. Just remembered how it was after a Cubs game up by Wrigley, and downtown when the trading floors were busy. What is OOB ?

Come on....back in the 90's.....just go to Cactus on a Thursday after the close......that or go to one of the "trendy" clubs downtown with an eightball. Shit was tooooooooo easy. If one still couldnt get laid then High Tops at night after a Cubs game....so many drunk chicks...like shooting...

Bonds ? You are kidding right? Not sure why you are so down on the stock market. Sure, Volume is down as a lot of the big players are on the sidelines/liquidating to meet redemptions, but I know plenty of guys who are making a killing right now trading equities. Some of the daytraders...

Surf You are acting like a buy and hold guy. This isn't good. I am truly concerned about you. Your Friend Eprado

I thought that the private equity guys were still doing well....guess not. http://www.finalternatives.com/node/6045 Private Equity Sours Along With U.S. Economy November 11, 2008 The U.S. private equity industry is suffering along with the rest of U.S. economy. According to new...

Too funny...was about to post the same thing. First time Surf and I agree on ANYTHING.

I am not sure VN paid any attention to where the mkt was when he sold puts. Kept doing the same thing. For such a brilliant guy, not such a smart/creative thing to do.

Required.......come on man. Thats stretching it. If you believe in his thing and can deal with oversized ego, then sure its a very good book. I have read parts of it...just not for me. As far as using his title on here? Come on man...this is a public chat board. There are a lot of things...

Average retail traders can sure as hell trade the same strategy. They just have to have correct position sizing, proper money management(stops) and a longer term view. It's obviously not for daytraders. Kinda lame response there Surf. Again...you have very limited knowledge(if any) of how...

I doubt that the author of this thread intended to steal the title of VN's book. Most likely he never heard of it...nor VN. Believe it or not Surf, not everyone out there who trades has heard of the great blow up artiste'.

I'm still waiting for VN to write "Education of a Blow up Artist". He could have all the guys in the Chicago trading pits who made a fortune off of him getting killed write the introduction.

Disaster? Your credibility (what's left of it) goes out the window with comments like this. You praise a guy like Neiderhoffer who has gone bust TWICE and vaporized all his clients money using a method that is widely used by a ton of people (except the others had money mgmt skills). Then...

Yeah, seems nothing like his brother. Not an egomaniac blow up artist. Probably learned a lot from fading his brother in a lot of ways.

You are the best Smurf. Ripping on a guy and his fund who has been around for 25 yrs and made his investors a fortune. Clearly the huge year that JWH is having is killing you. Good thing though your boy Neiderhoffer blew out ....could you imagine the money he would have lost playing...

His brother is and always has been a much better trader/fund manager. Perhaps he was adopted and doesnt have the "blow up" DNA.

So guys like SAC and Citadel got unlucky in October? Like you said, it comes down to money mgmt. Over time if you look at their whole careers, guys like Dunn and JWH have had very good money mgmt. Their returns since inception are great. Just gotta be able to roll with their volatility...

Surf is going around saying the trendfollowers got lucky. Yep...guys like Dunn and JWH are up 30 to 80% in their funds this year...all luck. Funny how Surf is real quiet about this subject...but was all over these guys when they hit a rough patch. How is Vic Neiderhoffer doin these...

Hey...even a broken clock is right 3 times a day...I was due.
