Who are the top five stock trading guru's who teach their methods?

Quote from EvanC:

Well, I was hoping to make sense of Mr. Hershey's comments/analysis regarding our software. Perhaps a few minutes of conversation would make it more clear to me.

I'm looking into each suggestion people offer on this thread (thanks to everyone for your ideas so far), looking for examples of successful stock traders with strong followings. Then I can test our software on their North American stock picks/entries/exits to see where our new tools would help improve their accuracy.

This sort of research is complex and time consuming, but does offer a win/win/win where ever it bears fruit.

So, any new rabbit holes to consider will continue to be appreciated :-)

Well, good luck trying to interpret his system. Keep us posted. I would contact Larry Connors lconnors at cg3.com[/emai
I worked with his group for years and believe they are in the cutting edge of price research plus they own one of the largest data bases of trades ever compiled. Tell him I sent you there may be some synergy between your firms in addition. . Surf

You know who is wealthier than VN ?


John Henry.


Lots of people, who make their money on fees and costs, are wealthier than VN. But VN is freaking Rambo when it comes to beating the market and taking the contraian stance compared to JWH.

PS-- not to mention freely teaching others and being accessible. Ever try to have dinner with J Henry?
 
“[Victor Niederhoffer] looked at markets as a casino where people act as gamblers and where their behavior can be understood by studying gamblers. He regularly made small amounts of
money trading on that theory. There was a flaw in his approach, however. If there is a…tide…he can be seriously hurt because he doesn’t have a proper fail-safe mechanism.”
George Soros
Soros on Soros (1995)

“On Wednesday Niederhoffer told investors in three hedge funds he runs that their stakes had been ‘wiped out’ Monday by losses that culminated from three days of falling stock prices and
big hits earlier this year in Thailand.”

Hi Surf,

We have developed a new technology that gives us the capability of following the entire pre-transactional market maker activity for up to 1,000 symbols at once.

What the hell is pre-transactional market maker activity?

Reading the book among other factors. Everything that happens prior to the trade taking place.

Please Surf. JWH made his money on profitbale trading. He did not make it on a 2% fee or any costs. Go back and look . He had some killer years. Much more than VN ever had. But like VN, he lost. The difference is JWH lost over time and did not completely blowout quick and lose ALL his investors money. VN lost EVERYTHING with a very very basic strategy that 1000's of floor traders used. At the end of the day, JWH's investors left with a good chunk of their money....VN's lost everything. At least JWH admitted the low volatility hurt him and accepted the loss.....while VN whined and cried like a baby that the floor guys pushed him out. Very weak on his part.
