Publisher's summary

IMPORTANT UPDATE: This audio is the new recording by DJ Holte, which replaced the original inferior recording and also contains text that was added in the 2012 revised edition of Market Wizards.

What separates the world's top traders from the vast majority of unsuccessful investors? In this iconic financial classic, Jack Schwager sets out to answer this question in his interviews with superstar money-makers including Bruce Kovner, Richard Dennis, Paul Tudor Jones, Michel Steinhardt, Ed Seykota, Marty Schwartz, Tom Baldwin, and more in this audiobook.

This interview-style audiobook from a financial expert is a must-listen for traders and professional financiers alike, as well as anyone interested in gaining insight into how the world of finance really works.

Filled with anecdotes about market experiences, including the story of a trader who, after wiping out several times, turned $30,000 into $80 million, and an electrical engineer from MIT whose computerized trading has earned returns of 250,000 percent over 16 years.

One of the most insightful, best-selling trading books of all time, including 16 interviews!

Great look into many ways to succeed in the market

Jack Schwager has done immensely valuable work compiling the experiences and methods of such a variety of traders. This book contains pertinent and immediately useful information for anyone interested in the markets.

Jack brings some advantages and disadvantages to the narration; having the original audio tapes from the interviews, I often found myself thinking the narration sounded like I was sitting in the room myself! However, there are several blatant editing errors such as double takes or editing comments that are somewhat jarring. In addition, there are no vocal differences between the various interviewees, and barely enough to distinguish the two parties talking - when there is a rapid back and forth session of dialog it can be difficult to distinguish who said what.

Overall I would still highly recommend this book and it's audio format to anyone interested in investing or trading.

I was about to give up, then I found this...

I was about to give up on trading, then I started listening to this audiobook. I realized several actions that are wrong on my side and listening to the market wizards made me understand that this is a process this is a business and risk management is vital to survive these wild markets. Do not give up, give this book a listening, it's worth every single second.

Great advice for any trader !

Just when the book started to get a bit dry a Nugget of trading wisdom would be offered up. Most of today's trading rules were pioneered or made standard by these traders.

Needs work

This book has great info but it needs editing. There are frequent mistakes that require a small amount of editing to remove. Shame on you Audible for not doing this small task.
