The world's top trader's reveal the secrets of their
phenomenal success!
How do the world's most successful traders amass tens,
hundreds of millions of dollars a year? Are they masters of an
occult knowledge, lucky winners in a random market lottery,
natural-born virtuosi--Mozarts of the markets? In search of an
answer, bestselling author Jack D. Schwager interviewed dozens of
top traders across most financial markets. While their responses
differed in the details, all of them could be boiled down to the
same essential formula: solid methodology + proper mental attitude
= trading success. In Market Wizards Schwager lets you hear,
in their own words, what those super-traders had to say about their
unprecedented successes, and he distils their responses down into a
set of guiding principles you can use to become a trading star in
your own right.
* Features interviews with superstar money-makers including Bruce
Kovner, Richard Dennis, Paul Tudor Jones, Michel Steinhardt, Ed
Seykota, Marty Schwartz, Tom Baldwin, and more
* Tells the true stories behind sensational trading coups,
including the one about the trader who turned $30, 000 into $80
million, the hedge fund manager who's averaged 30% returns every
year for the past twenty-one years, and the T-bond futures trader
who parlayed $25, 000 into $2 billion in a single day!
"Market Wizards is one of the most fascinating books ever
written about Wall Street. A few of the 'Wizards' are my
friends--and Jack Schwager has nailed their modus operandi on
the head."
