Niederhoffer In Trouble..... Again !!

Quote from asiaprop:

Do you seriously believe you will be able to nail this guy down? Maybe that is not your goal, maybe you just wanna know the whole story, but I am pretty positive you won't get it from him. In none of his publicized contributions has he ever hinted at having made mistakes whatsoever (please link to a single article because then I have obviously overlooked it). This guy will never admit he got it wrong but keeps on blaming market makers, sell-side firms, and other hedge funds for his failures for the rest of his life. Someone who reflected on past mistakes can talk openly about it or simply shut up. But such person won't come on boards and start talking about retail brokerage firms and TV shows. What a puppet.

Well, at least we can all takeaway that vol is linear and that collusion was the cause of the blowup.

Your pattern recognition skills are sadly lacking if you believe this 777 character is VN.

It is clearly an impostor.

Oh. Mr. Pekelo. It is Dr. Wisdom aKA The Wiz- who was/is VNs right hand man with matador. Not mr. Smart-- Maxwell works in the back office tracking down impostors and with other treacherous assignments.

:D

It isn't VN, it's a pretender. The tone and style are all wrong. But the assclowns on this thread are so eager to engage VN in a discussion that they <i>want to believe</i>...

Dear Gabfly,

May I call you "Gabby"? Rather, I am curious to the etiology of your ridiculous moniker. Indeed, it seems a play on words of the term "Gadfly" right? I understand that "Gadfly" is a term for people who upset the status quo by posing upsetting or novel questions, or just being an irritant. The term "gadfly" (Ancient Greek: &#956;&#965;&#969;&#771;&#968;, myops) was used by Plato in the Apology to describe Socrates' relationship of uncomfortable goad to the Athenian political scene, which he compared to a slow and dimwitted horse. You are keen to assume that role? Upsetting the status quo and being ever so cynical? I ask that you reevaluate your cause, seek to become awakened. Living the life that you lead can only result in a more miserable existence. Please read some books on inner spirituality to gain heightened levels of awareness.

Larry Williams is a friend of mine, and has a beautiful daughter that is a famous Hollywood actress that dated and had a child with the late actor Heath Ledger. Please do not dare castigate him again. If you do that again, then you and I will have words...

And what would be the point of your bringing up his daughter and the late father of her child? A misguided play for legitimacy on Larry's behalf?

My reference to Larry Williams had nothing to do with anyone other than the man himself. My trading "education," such as it is, came primarily from screen time and secondarily from far too many books on the subject, most, but not all, of which had little or no value. (Certainly business school in the '80s didn't teach me anything about trading.) I first came across Larry Williams's name in Gallacher's Winner Take All, which I read in the mid-90s, when I first became interested in trading the markets.

http://www.amazon.com/Winner-Take-A...=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1281100198&sr=8-2

Since that time, I had come across other material written either about Williams or by him. And I've had the good fortune not to spend a dime on anything he had to peddle. Over the years, I had arrived at the conclusion that there is a lot of vendor trash out there. I am of the view that Mr. Williams figures prominently upon that heap.

For your information, because I was appalled by what I had read about him, I even took it upon myself to verify Gallacher's claims about Williams by speaking with the NFA and, with some doing, one of their enforcement attorneys. Gallacher's claims were valid and, in my opinion, he rather held back somewhat. I discussed this matter under my previous user name, Thunderdog. Feel free to search for it. I had inadvertently made one factual error in my discussion about Williams, and I immediately acknowledged and corrected that error when the matter was brought to my attention by another poster. But that's all I'll say at this time. I don't want to spoil the drama for you.
 
Did you know that Dr. William's daughter also WON the Robbin's Cup following her Father's guidance?

Is this a conspiracy? May I suggest you contact Larry williams for a full explanation of what you reference. You can email him here, in case you didn't know: larry@ireallytrade.com

However, you will likely not--choosing to believe your ill gotten preconcieved ideas.

It is quite clear that you are very troubled by anyone you see with talent based on these posts.
