George Soros was a master at translating broad-brush economic trends into highly leveraged, killer plays in bonds and currencies. As an investor, Soros was a short-term speculator, making huge bets on the directions of financial markets. In 1973, George Soros founded the hedge fund company of Soros Fund Management, which eventually evolved into the well-known and respected Quantum Fund. For almost two decades, he ran this aggressive and successful hedge fund, reportedly racking up returns in excess of 30% per year and, on two occasions, posting annual returns of more than 100%.
=========================================
I truly believe nobody can achieve what Soros did without using The hedged grid trading system
Soros is no genus , he and the other famous great Investors know how to play the game
He who knows how to play the Game wins,
A genus wins the Nobel Prize .
here is the Game
X and his buddy y sit at the coffee shop scanning the Market listing before the opening
X says: look Google price is facing a resistance , I think this is a good time
Y replied: Sure I will sell short 50000 shares and you buy them from me
X : ok
2 weeks later at the coffee shop
X : Google price went down and it is facing a strong support
Y: I will close my short sell , lock in the profit and I will sell short an other 50000 shares and you buy them from me.
X ok
after three weeks at the coffee shop
X Google price went up nicely I think if we close all trades now
you will have made zero profit
and I will have made (50000 shares * nb of points) and all the news media will be talking about me
Y see you tomorrow for an other hedging Game
