"The filming for Trader took place in late 1986 and early 1987 and in the footage Jones talks about his expecation for a major stock market decline to come. Basically, heâs predicting on film the Crash of 1987. In fact, Jones is featured in Market Wizards, the interview for which was done a little while after the Crash, providing an interesting bookend with the video.
Hereâs the rub, though. Finding a copy of Trader is nearly impossible. Iâve heard talk before that Jones has gone around buying up all the copies he could get his hands on, presumably because heâs now a respected fund manager and philanthropist and doesnât want to be thought of as the brash character which comes across in the documentary. I donât know if thereâs any real truth to that, but a New York Times article from last fall does say that he request of the producers sometime back in the 90s that no more copies be made available and that theyâd seen prices of $295 and up online for copies on offer."
well, i am close with someone who has had hundreds of traders through the doors, all with good track records and a claimed edge--- only ONE made the cut when their trading was observed in real time--- and it wasn't chart or TA based....
furthermore, my interest as a journalist was a good story, not scientific proof....
For anyone looking for the videos...YouTube has them all in a 5 videos...so it looks like it lives on. Remember you can extract videos on youtube to save forever....just save them (google that concept) and use VLC player (google that) to play them.
Good Luck
Im a Forbes and we have more money than the Joneses...so thats why I can post this secret
