  1. We are excited about his new ocean front offices on the island. Last i noticed, they appeared to be about to open.

    Tudor’s main BVI Global macro fund produced an average annual gain of about 26 percent from 1987 through 2007, compared with about 5.3 percent from 2008 through last year. The fund lost 2.5 percent this year through July 22, according to an investor report. A newer share class of that fund has declined 1.8 percent.

    curious as to what you mean by profitable, verified long-term track record? Could you be more specific?

  6. The question that can be asked is what happened? I attribute the negative trend to the rise of the machines. The old ways simply no longer work even for the masters.

    Become a CTA or use sites like Collective2, FundSeeder or many others like it. Even something like World Cup. There are plenty of ways to have your performance tracked.

    It's not for me to find. The burden of proof is on the price action traders. This description of Al Brooks sums it up well (https://www.tradingschools.org/reviews/al-brooks-trading/)

    Al Brooks is a charlatan. No track record. Claims to be a "full-time professional day trader", yet can provide absolutely zero proof. Trading books are highly subjective, unscientific mumbo jumbo with no backtesting of trading concepts.

    Live trading room is an exhibition of palm reading, fortune cookie wisdom, crystal ball divination, modernist voodoo, cult leader fanaticism, and Harry Potter magical thinking.

    A specialist of "double-speak", where the left ear hears the trample of bulls, while the right ear simultaneously hears the mauling from bears.

    A circle jerk, waste-of-time carnival attraction meant to sucker the newbie into believing that an actual wizard is behind the curtain.

    How do you trade? Obviousley, not with PA. Have you ever shown a profitable verifiable long term record? If so, may you direct us to it? Thanks!
