Market Wizards Interviews with Top Traders

Grab a highlighter or notebook and get ready for some very valuable information. The interviews in this book show an array of different approaches to trading. If you are new to trading like myself you will find that this book will be hard to put down, not only because it shows what is possible, but because it becomes a springboard of motivation for the wise person who opens its pages. The "Market Wizards" give precise rules for trading (revisited by the author for reference) and lets the reader in on their philosophies. You will find out how they got there, but more importantly how they will stay there... This book is a national bestseller for a good reason!

Unlike most market books, this one is a gem

Most stock market books promise you a proven strategy to beat the stock market. If everyone adopts this strategy then those profits disappear. I'd much rather read books that discuss trading philosophy and mentality.

Whenever I read a work of non-fiction I'm able to judge the quality of the work in two ways. The first is how many times I dog ear the book or copy quotes out of it into my notepad. The second, and more important, is the number of new thoughts the book generates in my head as points for future inquiry. After reading this book, I had so many ideas and concepts to investigate that I didn't know what to do with myself.

This book is one of the best I have ever read because it leaves you with more questions than it gives answers. Not questions because of a lack of content, but questions because the book is able to get your mind flowing with inquisition.

A must read

This is not the book where you will get the holy grail to trade the markets but is really inspiring. I enjoyed some interviews more than others because they are more closer to my approach to the market than others, that's why I think every single kind of trader will find the same kind of trader interviewed in this book. Someones lost money in their beginnings doing naive trades and mistakes but they persisted understanding better some important things that wannabes don't do like money management.

I marked some pages of this book, and marked some paragraphs. Some times I re-read this marks to remember the best phrases in the book because they are very inspirational and good to remember before you trade.

A must read.
