^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ RE; Chart headline keep it so simple[KISS] Hey man; I have some nephews also; and @ very first glance i first thought that was a 1or 2 year chart. Probably cause i study 1 year charts much. After study i now see why your warning about ''frequent trading'' Very seldom use straight trendlines drawn like that because even though discretion is important; MUCH prefer trendlines like moving averages-mechanicaly drawn. And as far as KISS headline @ top of your chart, agree,with that, sure/simple; but other kinds of moving averages besides ''simple ''are helpful also Interesting your trendlineschart channels look amazingly like the ant trend channels on May sfomag.com. Peace thru strength
the number one system designer sounds very main stream if you ask me. trend following, indicators, that's it. if this interview was his business card ... hmmm. hank, frankly speaking, would you have called him no 1 if you hadn't done that interview?
being that paul tudor jones among many other top managers utilize his services, yes, i would say he is well known as the top systems guy in the world.
only little offense intended - - i think that mister jones uses probably a bunch of tools ... for whatever, maybe as a sideTool ... a reference of that kind does not tell anything. and i think ... some additional offense ... you know that. it does not mean that mister jones actually uses it for trading. it is like saying: a trader from mr jones (hi to you!) is a member of ET, that is why ET is the reason for their success, that is why ET is superb (which it is ...). btw, i think jones' trackrecord lost ground against his peer - at least in terms of sharpe. you are too bright to believe your own argument, aren't you?
