Trend Follower John Henry Assets Drop 80% In Year!!!

We can certainly agree on this. PTJ's record is pretty seriously WTF. Also, you're right it's more relevant around here.

Is it really necessary to bring to the attention those that aren't doing well in their trading MS?

 

i see you didn't read the article. JWH just had his best month of the year. please read prior to commenting.

My sincerest apologies. I'm not used to throwing flowers toward those that admit to the potential of trends.

 

Actually think prior to flaming? Heck, you could get thrown off E'trader for that.

 

yeah, that's asking a little too much.

 

Ooops . . . . you just had to flame didn't you.

Ok, so if John Henry lost 50% (being a Trend Trader that can't define the Trend) where does that put your YM trading this year. You have admitted you are upside down already and your track record since October is "one win and Over 12 losers".

People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. MS, play nice.

 

Look--If your strategy is to just buy breakouts or sell beakdowns, you will lose due to the emotions that are involved in the massive number of losing breakouts/breakdowns. To me, there are better ways to exploit trend.
