Best trading books

Right below are a few books I’ve come across that truly are awesome, they are all well written and I have actually managed to finish them unlike most books I attempt to read. If you decide to purchase any please read it, you will learn and get a lot out of them. I saw a shocking stat the other day that only 10% of books brought ever get read!

New Market Wizards – Jack Schwager

This book is genius, written by a guy called jack who spent years travelling round the states interviewing some of world’s best traders. The content in the book is not just interesting for traders and aspiring traders alike, but will also help motivate, and open your mind to the possibilities that being a successful trader can bring.

Way of the Turtle – Curtis M. Faith

So…The story goes like this two guys (traders) Richard Dennis and William Eckhardt in 1983 had a bet to see if their could turn a group of random people from different walks of life into star traders.

They placed an advert in a famous newspaper and received thousands of applications, eventually after the process of interviews etc they whittled it down to 10 successful applicants. They then taught them a successful trading system and gave them 1million dollars each to trade with…some of them flourished some of them failed. The author of the book ‘Curtis Faith ‘ one of the successful traders within the group gives his account and experience as one of the lucky turtles. An interesting and eye opening book – great read.
