Video: Trader, Paul Tudor Jones

btw, i think the reason they want to take this video down is because it is downright embarassing. when the "chief economist" presents his correlation analysis of dow closes in the 20s and 80s, and proudly asserts that there is a 90% correlation, it shows how utterly clueless he is/was.
 
Quote from Rodney King:

My point was, WTF do you know about whether they stay in touch? You've answered the question.

I didn't say they don't stay in touch. Those are your words. I said they parted company.

"WTF" indeed, Rodney. You're a bit like marketsurfer himself when he criticizes trend trading after first defining it in his own narrow and self-serving way consistent with his ongoing narrative. If you are going to criticize me, at least criticize what I actually wrote and not what you wish I wrote.

Clipping from <i>1998</i>?... Don't they have current material at the reference desk?

Perhaps they should write more often about when Borish and PTJ parted company in the '90s. So that I could present you with something more up to date about how they parted company in the '90s. Your pedantry is revealing.
 
Quote from Gabfly1:

Well, he has since parted company with Borish, and with that, I would like to think, maybe his goofiness about Elliot and Gann. As I recall, those long-term charts did not exactly deliver as expected.

I think the important thing is that he notes ninety-percent of any great trader is going to be the risk control. The remainder is, therefore, a matter of finding reasonable entry momentum. Therefore, as long as the 90% is the focal point, any reasonable identification of imminent or early momentum will do for the remaining 10% of the equation. And I would think PTJ has honed both variables over the decades.

He missed the crash by only four months, but he called for one in 1986. I don't know PTJ played the crash, but there was identifiable weakness before. That would make for some interesting tape.

And you are very right about risk.

In my previous post I gave the link where you can download the video from. It is a torrent....
 
That's a pretty good little movie. Lots of lessons in there and well worth the time to watch it.

But I don't get what all the clamor was about, with Surfy selling all those "original" copies...

I have a copy and have watched it about 30-40 times. It Was made when I was about 8 years old but I think it's really cool to look at how he trades and his analysis, do you remember the chart that was made with the large machine that drew long term price as well as short term? Its also great to look into PTJ's mind and see how to trades great documentary.

Yeah looked like that was a ink pen X-Y plotter. This was in the day of PC-XT/AT and fan fold dot matrix printers.

Be interesting to watch him trade now that he doesn't have to yell into two phones to get orders done...
