Quote from marketsurfer:

the actual original non edited tape will never make it onto the internet. it is far too valuable for those in the know to make it public.

The sales pitch continues...
 
The missing out-takes I was talking about are on the back of the tape and you have to play it backward.


Quote from atticus:

I have an original PBS "Trader: The Documentary" somewhere in a box, and it seems that the download is identical. It's been a while since I watched the tape, as I don't have a VHS player around to watch it.

Surf, until this I kind of liked you, but you are plain stupid on this one.

You can not guarantee that the person putting it up on the web is in the know or not, so it is quite possible that a person not in the know would put up the whole version.

Not that I believe there are 2 versions, just pointing out the lack of logic...

P.S.: And for fuck's sake, please switch to DVD from VHS when selling pirated products already! Nobody uses VHS anymore...
 
Similar, but different.

It said something like...... (phone call)...... "Ollie be strong, we can do this.......(garbled).......transfer funds to Vesco......(garbled).......Daniel Ortega.......(loud noise).......dead man.


Quote from brocklanders:

Does it say "Paul is dead"?
 
What I saw was a guy who lost big on the filming day. And then had the crew come back on a big up day.

I saw a guy have trouble getting filled on a currency trade but had he announcer say he still made 100,000.

What I saw was a trader who trades and has a tremendous track record.

In my opinion Tudor did not want that tape out because it does not convey the image hedge funds like to project.

Tudor looked like a trader making money because of his gut, experience and instinct.

Funds like to pretend they have quantified repeatable edge.

Now, I can't speak to most funds, but I can speak about 3 or 4 funds. (two of them fairly prominent.)

Those funds made money based on experience, market reading and very short term T/A and I suspect vol pumping.

Yet they projected a far different image. The media image was physicists and marketing beating science. The reality was experience and technicals.

The reason the PTJ video is interesting (and perhaps dated) is because it shows a trader with a chart.
