Fun Read
This book is a really fun read and tells it like it is. It strips away the glamour of day trading and shows the real story of the life of a manic day trader. Between Dumb Money, Monkey Business and Liar's Poker anyone could get the real scoop of what trading and banking are all about and be as well educated as any Harvard MBA in the ways of Wall Street.
Rating: 3 out of 5
Mildly Entertaining and informative
I found the book fun to read and somewhat entertaining. If you are inexperienced and looking for a quick summary of how the market works and some evolutionary history of wall street, Anuff and Wolf have done a reasonably good job of describing it. There are some very funny stories about Anuffs' experiences that I can relate to. I have been day trading for about 4 years and have had similar experiences.

Entertaining, if not informative
I found this book to be a quick and entertaining read. If you're looking for a book on how a trader makes his picks, this is not the book. However, it does give a clear view of the stress of the day trader; the ups and the downs, which for the most part seems to be a life of worry. For those daytraders out there, not many tips but you'll know what he's talking about and experience a good laugh along the way. Similar Products
