Hi Gang,

Just wanted to pass on the link for a youtube video which I thought was a great watch.

Not only has he survived but he's flourished where as almost everyone else has gone bust in the same period, so obviously he knows what he's talking about. He gives away the secret in video 4 around the middle of the video.

Te documentary has some good insights and its kinda bizzare the way he trades. He's like hyper most of the time jumping up and down screaming orders as you'll see. Watching it back in 1987 who would have imagined a hyperactive guy in glasses would go on to cement his reputation as one of the greatest traders of all time.

I'm told the documentary is very rare and hard to find (as per wikipedia)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Tudor_Jones.

Check out the video its split up into 6 parts

Inserted Video



Hope you find it useful

After watching Tudor trade, I'm going to start yelling out my orders before I hit the buy or sell key.

I don't know if I could trade that way,I don't think I'll still wanted to trade if I had to do it like that. Yelling annoys the hell out of me . I find my quiet trading room very nice,and consider trading very easy going business.God bless the internet & computers & retail brokers

Apparently the scenes such as the 'trading with beer in hand' didn't go down too well with investors, hence his reluctance to see it released.

Anyone that bailed on him because he was drinking a beer probably regrets that decision.
