    Praetorian had a number of big scores in penny stocks back in 2003-2006. It looks like all of his positions simultaneously collapsed in this current market cycle however.

    I remember him to be quite a good intraday trader as well. I wonder how well he could've done had he merely stayed with that instead of becoming a money manager.

    Harris, as I pretty clearly remember,-rarely messed with penny stox. Only in situations when trying to find a bottom for big institutions that had colllapsed. As I said before he should have stayed with day trading. I personally dont believe he had the head for research and trusted his instinct far too much. I remember him loading up on something--and I said why--do they have anything proprietary??NO -but it will be good or something like this was his answer--something to do with windows....... Aside from this he provided a bunch of us with some exciting days trading together--12k---15k. he had those days. He was quick and nimble-and could get out quicker than all of us.

  3. His entire fund was based on low priced stocks.

    Too bad, nice guy with talent.

    he has done quite well for a kid...however lets face it pretty much anyone can make money in a bull market. Much like Timmay with the penny stocks.

  9. You are making the wrong assumptions. I hope Prae speaks up. He knows trading not just bull markets.

    Comparing him to Timmay is absurd. Quite laughable.

  10. Regardless of Praetorian's fund performance he's accomplished more at his age than most here will ever do in their lifetimes.

    Evidently he had a good upbringing and is worth his mettle.
