  1. heres TF system going back to 1970. Things have changed in some ways, but the basic underlying basis for price movement, human decision making tree, haven't. And even algo's will have a underlying decision making principle or basis, that can be elucidated from price patterns.

    -gold
    -oil
    -dollar
    -bonds
    -equities

    are caught in psychological loops. Much more so, dollar and oil.

    I had 2 futures managers around the time of the LTCM crises. I think that dennis blew up after that. So I am guessing 2000.

    If you have the records.

    he had about a 30% draw down in the spring. Then he made a in just a few months.

    I took out my profits to buy a house in July or August and then he nose dived in the fall.

    Yes, fall 2000 DD, then at the bottom (off top of head Sep 00) the main allocation to his then fund pulled out. He has not publicly managed since.

    Yes, there is clearly hysteria in ET by a few. While a few will rant and rave nonstop, I will stick to the facts and let readers judge. When you dig into stories deep, facts come out. That is a major reason why "The Complete TurtleTrader" resonates with many.

    The film is an educational journey, not a drama queen expose. :)
