The world's top trader's reveal the secrets of their phenomenal success! How do the world's most successful traders amass tens, hundreds of millions of dollars a year? Are they masters of an occult knowledge, lucky winners in a random market lottery, natural-born virtuosi—Mozarts of the markets? In search of an answer, bestselling author Jack D. Schwager interviewed dozens of top traders across most financial markets. While their responses differed in the details, all of them could be boiled down to the same essential formula: solid methodology + proper mental attitude = trading success. In Market Wizards Schwager lets you hear, in their own words, what those super-traders had to say about their unprecedented successes, and he distils their responses down into a set of guiding principles you can use to become a trading star in your own right. Features interviews with superstar money-makers including Bruce Kovner, Richard Dennis, Paul Tudor Jones, Michel Steinhardt, Ed Seykota, Marty Schwartz, Tom Baldwin, and more Tells the true stories behind sensational trading coups, including the one about the trader who turned $30,000 into $80 million, the hedge fund manager who's averaged 30% returns every year for the past twenty-one years, and the T-bond futures trader who parlayed $25,000 into $2 billion in a single day! "Market Wizards is one of the most fascinating books ever written about Wall Street. A few of the 'Wizards' are my friends—and Jack Schwager has nailed their modus operandi on the head." --Martin W.

Los magos del mercado reúne diecisiete entrevistas con legendarios traders estadounidenses -incluidos Bruce Kovner, Richard Dennis, Paul Tudor Jones, Michel Steinhardt, Ed Seykota, Marty Schwartz y Tom Baldwin- trufadas de numerosas anécdotas reales del mundo del trading. Jack Schwager, que es también trader, identifica los factores que definen a un auténtico mago del mercado y desgrana las reglas de trading que sigue cada uno de ellos así como sus consejos para traders inexpertos. En este libro se relatan experiencias apasionantes, desde la del ingeniero eléctrico del MIT cuyo trading informatizado le hizo obtener retornos del 250.000 por ciento a lo largo de dieciséis años hasta la del trader que, tras perderlo todo varias veces, convirtió 30.000 dólares de inversión en una fortuna de 80 millones de dólares. Tras su lectura, se comprende rápidamente que el éxito en el trading se basa en una interesante combinación de método y actitud mental. Los entrevistados casi nunca alcanzaron el éxito de inmediato y atravesaron fases de grandes pérdidas financieras y desánimo.
