Readings

Hey all, I wanted to get some feedback on some books or other reading material that you recommend for somebody interested in S&T. I've already read Liar's Poker, Monkey Business, and the Vault Guides and am looking for something that discusses the strategy/methods used in trading (doesn't have to be specific to any specific desk). Thanks in advance.

you should definitely read "interviews with market wizards" by jack schwartz (sic?). it doesn't directly cover strategies and methods but it contains interviews with successful traders, who each stick consistently to a own distinctive trading style. interviews discuss their trading style and philosophies. also pretty inspiring too..

Its Jack Schwager, but everyone says read these books, there are 3 of them

 
  • Inside the Hedge House of Money

  • Reminiscenes of a Stock Operator by Jesse Livemore (one of the best books for any sorta trader)

  • Fooled by Randomness (N.Taleb)

I've read the first two Schawegers, which one is the third one?
