John W. Henry's Philosophy

John W. Henry outlined many moons ago the keys of successful trading:

"It's not for me to ask why the price is going up or down but rather to pay attention to what is actually happening. And over time, that gives us a big advantage."

"I don't believe that I am the only person who cannot predict future prices. No one consistently can predict anything, especially investors. Prices, not investors, predict the future."

"...when I was designing what turned out to be a trend following system...[that] approach - a mechanical and mathematical system - has not really changed at all. Yet the system continues to be successful today, even though there has been virtually no change to it over the last 18 years."
