Come Meet the Mad Hedge Fund Trader!
Come join me for lunch at the Mad Hedge Fund Trader’s semiannual Global Strategy Update, which I will be conducting in San Francisco at 12:00 noon on October 22, 2010. A three course lunch will be followed by a 30 minute PowerPoint presentation and a 45 minute question and answer period.
I’ll be giving you my up to date view on stocks, bonds, currencies commodities, precious metals, and real estate. And to keep you in suspense, I’ll be throwing a few surprises out there too. Enough charts, tables, graphs, and statistics will be thrown at you to keep your ears ringing for a week. Tickets are available for $199.
I’ll be arriving two hours early and leaving late in case anyone wants to have a one on one discussion, or just sit around and chew the fat about the financial markets.
The lunch will be held at the Marines’ Memorial Association at 609 Sutter Street, San Francisco, CA 94102. The club is only two blocks from the city center at Union Square and the Powell Street cable cars.
I look forward to meeting you, and thank you for supporting my research. To purchase tickets for the luncheons, please go to my online store at http://shop.madhedgefundtrader.com/

I am sorry, but this sort of self promotion belongs in the advertising space next to FX Open.
... it is NOT a fluke that Tyler posts madhedge on a regular basis, IMO.
Hey Mr. MHFT, I need an outside opinion. What's your take on humanity?
I have been watching you guys piss all over the Mad Hedge Fund Trader for the past year, and it is time for me to take the other side of that trade. I have been following him since last year. At first I found his comments hard to believe. But when it became obvious that he knew what he was talking about I piled in and have made a 450% profit on his ideas. He was one of the first letters to go back into commodities after the crash. He got me into gold at $800 and silver at $10. I have lost count of the doubles he has raked in on stock picks. This year he got me out of stocks in April and back in on September 1. Over the summer his picks in the rare earths, the ags, and emerging markets were unbelievable. Where can you find all these ideas? At Zero Hedge! Even getting his ideas a week late, you could have made a fortune. Anybody who is still dumping on Mad at this stage is either not in the market, pissed off that he won’t tell them what they want to hear, or is just plain nuts. I have since cancelled all my other paid subscription letters. His writing is so funny I would read it even if he were wrong, which is rare. The only ideas I have lost money on was when he was early on the short yen and treasury ideas. But even on those I made a ton range trading before I got stopped out. Because of Mad, I have paid off my mortgage and covered the bills for my father that his cheapskate insurance company, Blue Cross, refused to pay. He has changed my life. I know he has done this for a lot of other people too. Last summer I used the money I made from Mad to buy a new Toyota Tundra and trailer and drive up to San Francisco to thank him in person. Below is a partial list of trades I did with Mad. If you want to ask me in person about this track record, I will be at the San Francisco lunch. I will be the big old guy with the camos.

Uh-huh. Are you the codger from the Carlton Sheets infomercial or MHFT himself?
I have absolutely zero against MHFT. However, he rarely ever offers anything more than anecdotal stories. No real quantitative analysis or substance in any of his posts. Again, I have no real issue with that either.
My only question is why these posts get front page space. I bet there are a hundred other guru investors who are looking to sell their newsletter or seminar on this site. Why is ZH allowing this one in particular to be featured constantly? If ZH is charging for it then I am fine with that. They certainly deserve any revenue they receive. If not, then maybe he should buy up adsense space like the rest of them. Compete with Cramer for the banners.
Inspirational.
Don't believe a word of it, however.
Mad just has a different take on things. He just ignores the 'long enough timeline...' ethos and tries to make a buck or two out of anything that makes sense - no matter how unfashionable. Seems to be pretty good at it too.
Trying to sell tickets for market insight to ubercynical ZHers though was always going to be as popular as Leo trying to sell Greek solars. That said, I'm sure a lot of people will attend the talk. Albeit quietly.
I'll pay $200 for a Cramer vs MadHedge death match... Leo can man the sound effect buttons on mad money during the match
Now that is an image!
Ben has got my back, he's good for $199 if he's good for a trillion. Just send my ticket, Bernanke will settle up with you by QE2, promise.
you pay me $199 and I might show
Better still -- come meet me under the overpass at Folsom and Division. I'm the ripe-smelling guy dragging his goods around in a shopping cart. For ten bucks, I'll share a blunt with you, and tell you all about my macro-economic analysis and exact projections for all major markets over the next five years. And, if you've got a pretty mouth, I may even throw in a handjob . . .
LOL, is there a CV or summin for this guy, was he ever with any of the big guys? Seems to be pushing his business a bit too hard for my liking, even though I like some of his stuff...sounds like a snake oil salesman to me, but i guess times are right for that sort of thing....
If not please provide your bank account number, wire details and password.
Do you accept Craig's Card?
does $200 even cover a bento box in San Fran anymore???
Save yourself the time and money. Buy a tenth of an ounce of gold. It is what he will advise anyway!
"I'm not an urban legend---" Yeah, you got that right. You're a legend in your mind; which is a whole nother thing. $199 ?? For what. I just love it when people treat me like I'm stupid.
An urban legend? Im sorry, but WHO is this guy? He's a legend in his momma's house
13 rankings on this article so far ... and an average ranking of 1 star.
So that means out of 13 people, all of them (sorry, US) rated it 1-star.
He is legendary FAIL.
Legend - no
Mega FAIL - yes.
