Every aspiring trader needs to take this advice to heart…

Revisado: 11-21-24

If you want to be skillful (and not just lucky) it makes sense to understand those voices in your head and master your inclinations. This book shows a way.

Sometimes the advice sounds like it comes straight from the Buddhist Pāḷi Canon: a traders “master themselves” kind of ethic. I enjoyed that aspect of this exhortation.

Finally the narrator was most impressive. He told the story so well that I thought the book was read by the author.

Stop loss percentage varies according to discretion…

Revisado: 06-13-24

That was not a explained in the first book. Also, explaining his thoughts as he entered andexited trades was well explained. However, the first book was better.

Too much Wyckoff opinion …

Revisado: 06-09-24

The audiobook could be much abridged on the opinion front and expanded on the examples front.

Be yourself…

Revisado: 06-08-24

The book leaves you with some tactical principles that will guide you as a trader. More importantly, it encourages you to be yourself and teaches you to observe until you’re able to do so without participating emotionally.

This audiobook makes you feel ashamed to have an MBA…

Revisado: 06-29-23

But it is totally awesome.

Except for the three thoughts at the end, I thought it totally consumable and particularly helpful to me as an aspiring trader/investor.

Some parts are hilarious and most parts are thought provoking.

Well done Taleb.

A+

Comparative Advantage Explained

Revisado: 01-08-23

I’ve read many different explanations about comparative advantage, but this book presents the most easy to understand explanation. However, the book is not about explaining comparative advantage, per se. It’s about improving our intuition on what economic policies will serve ALL of us most appropriately.

Good job!

I wonder if Roy is Leonard…

Revisado: 12-13-22

Roy’s performance was so masterful, I thought he might’ve written the book.

This book makes you worry.

The argument as I understood it:

There are a lot of highly educated people disagreeing about how actively economic expansions and contractions should be governed. The book helps show that our activist Federal Reserve System, with cameo support from the US Treasury and Congress, has inflated asset prices to the point that they contribute to destabilizing the nation.

The increase in reserves is not aligned with increases in GDP and our “elastic money” system isn’t snapping back to its old familiar form.

Keynesians are at the helm.

We live in exciting times!

Intriguing presentation of the names behind and concerns of exchange traded funds

Revisado: 12-07-22

I liked the focus on the characters and short stories that, sometimes humorously, shed light on this gnarly fund business. Of those anecdotes, the one about the fish was the best.

The stuff about Bogle was heartbreaking, but even Keynes was highly flawed. Aren’t we all!

Reminded me of Gross in the Bond King by Mary Childs. Do we really want to pay the price to be great?

Anyway… unlike the book on Gross, the treatment of power complexes was a divergence because the book is about funds and not about Bogle.

I appreciated that section though. So if you like gossip on power trips, this Bud’s for you!

If you trade options on highly liquid ETFs, this book explains the nature of your underlying financial instruments.

The section on bond funds was the most enlightening section if you had put no thought into how the funds could have been constructed.

Wahlberg’s Italian Job cannot touch this riveting tail…

Revisado: 11-18-22

Mary Child’s masterpiece should be a movie. It’s that entertaining.

The parts that were most captivating were her descriptions of the Bond King’s biggest heists.

Other reviewers almost influenced me against purchasing this work. Please be careful following those reviewers. Try to pick up on their sexist descriptions of her narration.

Her voice is not shrill. It’s just that some boys don’t like the shaft that she’s pushing. Perhaps it was intended for them too. I don’t see it that way.

Her lens is colorful and it’s focused on painting a world that’s abusive. Some folks don’t like that perspective but there’s no need to disparage this story of bank robbery (and comeuppance) because it hurts your masculinity. Just lube up.

I don’t want to spoil the story so I’ll stop with this caveat: If you don’t read this work and fundamentally grasp the lessons, you do yourself a huge disservice.
