Tharp realized quite early that it is low risk to formulate complex sounding theories and write books with PhD attached to his name in it then actually trade. Ed Seykota on the other hand does trade. Hilarious stuff though - WYWTFF. Chris.

Can'ttradesurfer ---you must have me confused with another on this site. see, i despise trend following and think its a vastly inferior trading technique. by the way, have you seen the trend following movie? It's a good movie, just don't follow the specific trading advice. http://edge.affiliateshop.com/public/AIDLink?AID=103735&BID=13213 surf
