Bulls, Bears, and Millionaires: War Stories of the Trading Life

I found this book gave me a bird's eyer view of what it's like trading for short and intense market swings.Really good portrait of the lives of traders.

Koppel presents 20 traders and asks them thought provoking questions about what they learned about their profession and themselves. Any comparison between this book and the Market Wizards misses the point.Here the authors main interest is not specific trading strategies but rather the emotional and psychological aspects of being a first string performer.Also, many interesting philosophical insights that would serve one well in tading or in life.I felt the conversational tone to be very effective.

Bob Koppel illustrates in this wonderful book what it takes to be a succesful futures trader. From his experiences and through the interiews of top traders from all around the world, Koppel makes it clear what essential qualities need to be developed in order to achieve financial success. This book is also a very exciting and enjoyable book to read. Koppel puts you in the position of trading multi-million dollar positions before key government repots. These experiences will help you be able to deal with them more effectively when they do occur in your trading carear. Arlen Ginsburg, Independent Futures Trader
