Reminisciences of a stock operator is probably the best written just about trading in general. Something I personally like are the books by Mike Bellafiore (even though I personally don’t like SMB capital)
Reminiscences of a stock operator is great, but it’s a story, doesn’t teach you how to trade. I’d highly recommend the book below, Brent Donnelly is currently an FX trader at HSBC so his book is 100% applied and teaches macro/technical/risk management
The Art of Currency Trading is a comprehensive guide that will teach you how to profitably trade currencies in the real world. Author Brent Donnelly has been a successful interbank FX trader for more than 20 years and in this book, he shares the specific strategies and tactics he has used to profit in the forex marketplace.
