DESCRIPTION:
You'll know you're getting really good advice if they also mention Reminiscences of a Stock Operator by Edwin Lefèvre. Reminiscences of a Stock Operator is the thinly disguised biography of Jesse Livermore, a remarkable character who first started speculating in New England bucket shops at the turn of the century. You always find lots of early bulls in bull markets and early bears in bear markets. Livermore, who was banned from these shady operations because of his winning ways, soon moved to Wall Street where he made and lost his fortune several times over. It always was my sitting. Men who can both be right and sit tight are uncommon." If you've ever spent weekends and nights puzzling over whether to buy, sell, or hold a position in whatever investment--be it stock, bonds, or pork bellies, you'll be glad that you read
Despite the book's age, it continues to offer insights into the art of trading and speculation. In Jack Schwager's Market Wizards, Reminiscences is quoted as a major source of stock trading learning material for experienced and new traders by many of the traders who Schwager interviewed. The book tells the story of Livermore's progression from day trading in the then so-called "New England bucket shops," to market speculator, market maker, and market manipulator, and finally to Wall Street where he made and lost his fortune several times over. First published in 1923, Reminiscences is a fictionalized account of the life of the securities trader Jesse Livermore. Along the way, Livermore learns many lessons, which he happily shares with the reader. The book is considered an investment classic.. Facsimile of 1923 Edition

After all, this is the bible of stock trading. Only a complete amateu. "The timeless classic delivers time and time again" according to Zarif Alimov. Reminiscences seems to be referenced in just about every story about and a profile of a successful investor. I have read all of Jack Schwager's "Market Wizards" books and struggle to remember a single interviewee that did not mention, in a positive way, t. The Classic, Defining Investment Book - Absolute Best Widely regarded as the best classic investment book ever written. I have the book, kindle book (Updated, annotated version) and audiobook.
