Who's your trading idol?

Quote from zdreg:

how about 3 reasons since he blew up a couple of times.
More...

please allow me to provide 3 reasons:

1. more top traders/fund managers have resulted from his tutelage than anyone else i know. monroe trout and tony crabel are examples.

2. He came from meager means and built quite the life from the markets. He was certainly not born with a silver spoon. Proving that anyone with the desire,passion, and intelligence can make it.

3. After being one of the top ranked money manager in the world, he blew up in 1997. Since that time, he has rebuilt his firm and reputation to once again be among the top ranked money managers operating today. I can't name one other trader/money manager who has come back to top rankings after such a disastrous blowup.

There are multiple additional reasons why VN should be listed on any trading hero/legends list, the above are just a few primary reasons.

I gotta go with Neiderhoffer too, if you need some reasons, try reading "The Education of a Speculator".

Since I like making a mess, I will also nominate Merriweather.


:D
