Do As I Say, Not As I Do

I guess you guys never heard the guy called Fairy, who is No.1 in Japaness future contests 3 times in 4 years.

He made 1000% 800% like 3 times!!!

He also wrote a dairy about his trades: why he made them and where to stop win or loss, money management etc...

Books
I can only talk about what I know.

Quote from PCanyon: .. Stanley Kroll (RIP), John Hill, ..
Ok, all these guys are authors and probably made out real well selling books and even a few "systems.” But as far as I know, they made their reputation writing about markets, not trading.

John, a lot of time would come into work make a quick $500.00 on the open and go home. Kroll is known for pulling a million dollars out a signal trade (campaign). Just how much to you think they make on publishing.

So, who has walked the walk and then talked?

Livermore for sure in Reminiscences. Kroll read Livermore followed what he learned, did some million dollar trades then reported back.

A gambler, NOT a trader who was broke when he died

You should really get all your facts straight. Livermore was anything but broke at the time of his death.

In your definition, a trader can't be broke, right?

The fact remains that he was unmatched, he is and he will be.

The Zweig Forecast was the top market advisory for the 15 year period between 1980 and 1995*. Zweig Forecast delivered a 16 percent per annum compounding return, the highest risk-adjusted return of any market advisory service during that time.

According to the AAII**, out of more than 50 stock-screens it operates, the Martin Zweig Stock Screen has been its top performer in the last eight years - up more than 1,700 percent between 1998 and 2006.

I got a ton out of the Market Wizards books by Jack Schwager. Not only are they well-written and entertaining, but the insights were well, well worth the price.

I like this.

Zweig says, "People somehow think you must buy at the bottom and sell at the top to be successful in the market. That's nonsense. The idea is to buy when the probability is greatest that the market is going to advance".

Mark Cook ($400 month) walks and talks daily as does Jeff Cooper ($900 year).

Anekdoten of the AHG thread walks the walk and has posted his methodology for free, it works for all time frames and is the single best contribution to ET.
