The New Market Wizards: Conversations with America's Top Traders Paperback – January 12, 1994

5 out of 5 because the book is exactly as described. Interviews with market wizards, people who have made it in the market and talk about it in detail; some more than others. Jack having been a trader himself know what to ask and has good follow up questions. They also talk about how it all began, other parts of life that were trying and from back in the pit days.A must read for who wants guidance and assurance from the best traders in building a trading system, be it fully automatic or discretionary. The book covers technical aspects of trading, market tone, fundamental approaches, arbitraging, trend-following, psychological... there's even a chapter about hypnosis... fantastic!

After reading both Market Wizards and The New Market Wizards I see there is more potential in trading for me. One big encouragement I gleaned from both of these books is that there are many methods that were successful for the all time great traders and their recommendation to new traders is to learn your own way of trading that gives you an edge. Then don't listen to all the "talking heads" or friends and family. Just study and learn what you can then find and tweak your edge. Then follow your plan so you can remove emotions.These were the most amazingly informative and encouraging books I have read about trading.

I recently purchased the Traders Wizards book on Amazon, and it's been an enlightening read. The insights shared by the authors are invaluable, providing a deep understanding of trading strategies and market dynamics. The book's practical approach and real-world examples make complex concepts more accessible for both beginners and experienced traders. Overall, a highly recommended resource for anyone looking to enhance their trading skills.

If you are looking for experiences of traders who make money this is the book to buy if your looking for advice or even an idea of what trading looks like buy this book

It's hard to find a good investment book to fill the young mind. I am 19 and I like investing and finance. This is by far the best book I have ever read about investing. It doesnt teach you patterns or little tricks, but simply tells you about Wall Street's best stories, trades, and multiple traders strategies and how they did what they did to become successful. If you like hedge funds this is a must read if you like investing READ THIS. You will not find a better book about Wall Street other than this book. True Story ;)

After the hundreds of trading books I have read I still consider Jack Schwagers Market Wizards Series the best of the best. Why? His trading books are not based on theories, opinions, predictions, or beliefs, he goes down a completely different path. His books are based on interviewing the very best traders in the world, the ones with the very best returns year after year, the millionaires, the traders that trade for a living. The New Market Wizards book gives you an up close look at how rich traders were able to find and master a trading style that fit their personality and allowed them to beat the market year after year. If you read this book carefully and pay attention you should find some trading principles that are gems that could revolution your trading. I know his books have done that for me. If other trading books are like letting you see a trader's trading plan then Schwagers books are like allowing the reader to see directly into the mind of the rich trader. I would put this book on my top ten must read trading books.

This is a modern day trading classic and the book should inspire all traders. I should say, all traders who really want to improve their results. Schwager brings up that point in so many of his reviews of the top traders, that many are constantly trying to improve. I have wanted to read this book for many years and I should have many, many years ago but now that I have it is certainly one of the books that can be read several times.

The first book is an absolute classic. These interviews are vacuous by comparison. There are enough useful points to merit three stars but barely.
