The Geniousness of Paul Tudor Jones

E

etfarb

For anyone who has seen his documentary the man is clearly a king for his time. Markets have changed a lot since the 80's but for anyone whose more or less seen his thought process for his short term trades - can you still trade like that?

The intent of this thread essentially is to discuss short term trading on a discretionary (gut) basis vs a systematic manner where one backtests everything
 
Please fix the spelling in the title to avoid the irony.

Tudor built Ranger in the mid-90s and hires >100 PMs that are involved in algo/system trading. IIRC it's approx. 50/50 between quant and discretionary trading.

in Mali, about once a month, the rat man comes by, and he has a full tree of cooked rats

and they are not cheap

about 2 bucks

but you will buy one

partly out of boredom

and partly because it has been a month since you have had any meat
 
I've always admired Mr. Jones.

However, it must be acknowledged that he was a given a fairly generous headstart.

Of course, he seems to have had the chutzpah to make the most of it.
