Super Traders

Rating:
Summary: More job descriptions than trading information.
Review: If you have ever wondered what functions the various traders on wall street serve you might like this book. For instance what role does a sales trader play as opposed to a market maker? The chapters are each an interview with a different trader serving a different role. The only real trading interview is Trader Vic, and for that you may as well buy his book.

The book is well written and informative, but it is not the same as The Market Wizards or The Best Conversations with Top Traders.

If you are looking for trading ideas, one of those should make for a more satisfying read.

Summary: Disappointment given the title of the book
Review: This book is disappointing to say the least. What it is a collection of brief autobiographies. How certain successful traders built up their trading companies. There are certainly no trading secrets in this book. The best chapter is by Vic Sperandeo but it is so brief that nothing useful can be gleaned. This book is best saved as a read on the train into and back from work. Just don't expect to improve your trading technique by reading it.

Summary: Takes a 3rd place to the 1st two market wizards books.
Review: This is a good read as well but i was expecting more ,not the question and answer type like market wizards. But its still leaps and bounds better than stock market wizards.
