 Rating 5   Written on March 3, 2008
   Summary: We are experiencing painfully the truth in this book today
As the stock market goes down down down, on page 163 the author explains why once again it was inevitable: "Over time, the size and complexity of the economy will outgrow the sophistication of static financial safety buffers."

 Rating 5   Written on February 29, 2008
   Summary: Very strong read.
It is amazing how long ago the core of this book was written yet the relevance of this material is spot on.

An excellent read getting into any type of trading (I trade currencies).

The morals become extremely potent once you have made and lost, and made (and lost) some money.

By far the best trading book I have ever read.

   Summary: EVEN RECOMMENDED BY FORBES
HE HAD RULES SUCH AS:

-Let your winners run and cut your losses quickly.
-History repeats itself.
-The trend is your friend.
-No stock is too high to buy or too low to sell.
Jesse Livermore high rolling life ended when he sadly committed suicide leaving $10,000 in his will (Source: Wheels of Fortune - The History of Speculation from Scandal to Respectability)! This provides evidence that he was a lucky gambler AT LEAST AT THE END.... after all someone was to win even in the lottery!


 Rating 4   Written on January 27, 2008
   Summary: Worth a read
An enjoyable book. It certainly makes you realize that, except for a huge increase in scale, "the market" is very similar today to what it was 80 years ago. Good stories and insights make this a worthwhile way to spend some reading time.


 Rating 5   Written on January 9, 2008
   Summary: A classic that everyone wants to read
Mark Twain once said:

"A classic is something that everybody wants to have read and nobody wants to read."

This quote usually applies to most classics, with the exception of this book! If you are a trader and you haven't read Reminiscences of a Stock Operator, read it ASAP.
