I can't say that. Sure, initially his money compounding, but he definitely had clients in the late seventies/early eighties range.
No problem at all Dave. Hooking me up with Eddie was a very nice deed and I have warm feelings toward you. And yes I knew you were duped in a last ditch attempt by Matador to save face. Hell if that writer for the New Yorker hadn't been there the truth may never have come out.
Guys, you are being fooled by a DOG!!!. Congrats to Pa(b)st! A win is a win! chicagotribune.com Boxer-Mix 'Pabst' Crowned World's Ugliest Dog KTLA News June 29, 2009 PETALUMA -- A boxer-mix with a prominent under-bite named Pabst has been crowned the world's ugliest dog. The annual World's Ugliest Dog contest was held Friday at the Sonoma-Marin Fair in Northern California. Pabst was rescued from a shelter by Miles Egstad, of Citrus Heights. Egstad took home $1,600 in prize money, pet supplies and a modeling contract with House of Dog for Pabst. Pabst beat out former champion Rascal, a pedigree Chinese Crested. Miss Ellie, a blind 15-year-old Chinese Crested Hairless, won the pedigree category. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ktla-ugliest-dog-contest,0,4097908.story
no sycophantic adulation from me. VN is a good friend of mine, and i have tremendous respect for his research, intelligence and willingness to share same. Many traders from his tutelege have gone on to greatness, including monroe trout and roy niederhoffer. however, i do not hesitate to criticise VN for being overly aggressive with risk, etc. he is flawed just like everyone else. this does not invalidate his ideas, obviously furthermore, its up to the investor to decide if the risk is too great, no one else. surf
Besides the fact you felt insecure enough to reply back and ALSO send me a PM saying the same thing, You seem to forget all the negative reactions you got earlier on ET, and the shill reviews you had planted on book review sites. (you will deny, but I and others have seen it clearly.) Just because many months have been since you were shredded by a number of people here, does not mean that it has been forgotten. remember comments about you like this? "I wonder if he can get reviews removed here like he did at amazon? "
I'm a little shocked by the amount of negativity here. I'm new to the forum, but I'm not new to trading. I personally don't follow the turtle trading method, but a lot of my friends do, and they find it reliable. Richard Dennis is a trading legend, I hope no one will argue with that, and Michael Covel is a well-known follower of that school of thought. Practicing traders have great respect for both of them.
TraderZones you clearly did not read my book nor do you posses a complete understanding of the subject. That said, you are right about one thing. Several years ago there was criticism from a very small group who had not read the book. That quickly went away once people understood the facts and story completely presented in "The Complete TurtleTrader". Many positive reviews for the book on Amazon, from the likes of Brett Steenbarger, Bloomberg, SFO, MTA, etc. understand the level of research and narrative that went into the book. Not to mention the positive statements from many, many Turtles on the first page of the new paperback version. Are you aware of how the most successful Turtle Jerry Parker feels about the book? I am very aware. That said, I do understand for some of the mentally challenged there must always be a fantastic conspiracy to uncover, and in that sense I welcome all press even if some of it happens to be off the wall press.
