Market Wizards: Interviews with Top Traders

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? On the lookout for an answer, bestselling creator Jack D. Schwager interviewed dozens of top traders across most financial markets. Whilst 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 allows you to 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’ll be able to use to grow to be 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 1st earl baldwin of bewdley, and more
• Tells the true stories in the back of 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 among the most fascinating books ever written about Wall Street. A number of the ‘Wizards’ are my friends—and Jack Schwager has nailed their modus operandi on the head.”
