There are a lot of Van Tharp threads, so since I did not know where to put this, I thought I'd create a new one (mods: feel free to move it)
I just learned that Market Wizard Dr. Van Tharp passed away yesterday.
Van's works were a big influence on my early trading, and I'm glad I was able to learn from him.
He will be missed.
Rest In Peace, Van.

Really as title? I haven't seen this news, he is famous here and I had learned much from his book, sad to hear that.

Van's works were a big influence on my early trading, and I'm glad I was able to learn from him.
Me also - saddened to hear this.
His original book was among the things that prompted me to realise that trading is logical and rational, and something I could learn.
RIP.

His books gave me as well hours of delight and a lot of motivation!

Thanks for sharing @kevinkdog . I learned about this Friday and was saddened. Like you and countless others, we have all learned a lot from Van Tharp.
Here is a nice tribute from the Van Tharp Institute:
Van Turns to Light
RIP Van Tharp.
