Market Wizards by Jack Schwager



This book is a collection of interviews of a group of successful traders in the 1970s/80s. Their experiences are interesting to hear and traders may draw useful lessons from them. However, some of them were successful only because they were in the right place at the right time. The 1970s were a great commodity bull market and some of them profited from it. Nevertheless this is a classic to read and enjoy. Jack's latest book, Hedge Fund Market Wizards, is also a fantastic read.

Trader Vic---Methods of a Wall Street Master by Victor Sperandeo





The view the author has is slightly biased in favor of the Austrian School of Economics. Some of his methods are novel---you wouldn't see them in most books on trading (for instance, his measuring the average length and magnitude of a bull/bear market's primary and secondary trends, there by gauging the odds for a change in the trend in the market). His views on investor psychology are also interesting to read.
