Paul Tudor Jones Trend Following Wisdom

“I become quicker and more defensive. I am always thinking about losing money as opposed to making money.”

“Risk control is the most important thing in trading.”

“Don’t be a hero”.

“Always question yourself and your ability”.

My biggest hits have always come after I have had a great period and I started to think that I knew something.”

“One of my strengths is that I view anything that has happened up to the present point in time as history. I really don’t care about the mistake I made three seconds ago in the market. What I care about is what I am going to do from the next moment on. I try to avoid any emotional attachment to a market.”

“I never apologize to anybody, because I don’t get paid unless I win.” (more…)
