That's because he's not killing it. Trading is kind of like the educational schooling system; Those that can Do...Do. Those who can't...Teach. You have to make your money one way or another. I'm not necessarily passing judgement for either side, just saying.
The question was meant to be leading, I'm sure he isn't killing it either. Another candidate for this is Bert Mouler, he's all over social media like a rash now, I'm guessing the hedge fund isn't doing too well.
Most important check: He's not registered on NFA or FINRA: https://www.nfa.futures.org/basicnet/ Which is very strange for a US base doing marketing.. And one of my friend met him and he thinks that he is at least partially fake. He never got any statement. And the marketing document seem to confuse real track record and back test track record.
Very weird, uses Wolfram Research for backtests. This one post flashed warnings: http://jonathankinlay.com/2016/02/yes-you-can-time-the-market-how-it-works-and-why/ It is Feb 23, 2016 and he claims in that post SPY buy and hold CAGR is 14.75% and the 24-month moving average momentum rule has CAGR 16.16%. What can you make of this? I leave the judgement to you. Very weird case.
bogitrade, couldn't someone just backtest to see if his 2 year (wow!) moving average S&P test really did outperform the buy and hold S&P?
The numbers are more important than the outperform if any. Probably outperformed because it is a curve fit. I don't do backtests but the numbers sound crazy.
I knew the guy years ago. He's intelligent and a great salesman. As a quant, he's competent but I wouldn't say anything special. He's also a shameless self-promoter. For him, as I remember him telling me once, it's all about presentation. Would not trust him at all.
