Reminiscences of a Stock Operator: With New Commentary and Insights on the Life and Times of Jesse Livermore Audiobook

" Excellent book. Really navigates through the mental cycles of a trader. You will learn something every time you finish it. "

" This book should be obligatory reading for anyone who works in financial markets. The rationale behind anti bucket shop legislation, and its application to modern financial instruments, becomes clear as you learn how these establishments functioned. From a behavioural finance perspective this is also a fascinating and very early look at the pitfalls of investing. "

" Pretty good book about the life of Jesse Livermore. "

" It may be hard to read if you don't understand how the stock markets worked back then, but it is a very good book, if your into history, economics, etc. Its probably the only fictional novel based on investing that stood the test of time. One of my favorite books ever! "

" Really enjoyable read that takes you back to where it all began but also makes you wonder whether all that much has changed in the mean time? Highly entertaining. "

" Captures the essence of day trading that, although was written about a character before the great depression, is timeless in dealing with human nature. Though plotless, love the pace and the narrative. "

" Loved this book. Few trading books read like a fantasy novel. Lots of great advice placed sporadically throughout the book. "

" A must read for anyone interested in the art of day trading. "

" An excellent read and timeless. Published in 1923, it is still timeless reading for anyone interested in the stock and commodity markets. "

" the bible. Must read for anyone who wants to trade "

" This book is a must in every trader's library. I found the book hard to put down after I read through the first chapter. It is written in an easy yet fascinating style in which a trader can relate to in today's market conditions. "

" my vague recollection of this book for some reason involves his fishing expeditions, rather than his dealings with the tape. "

" Really interesting book. I read it few months back and it was really informative. "

" Entertaining. Both inspirational and cautionary. 100 year old wisdom and still entirely relevant. "

" Widely regarded as THE best book ever written about trading by most high profile traders. The book is a bio of Jessie Livermore, a legend trader in early 20th century. "

" Interesting period piece alone, not to mention the insights into market mechanics/corruption of the early markets. "

" I know it is strange but this is one of my favorite books. It is a very easy read. It was written in the early 1900's but I think that is what fascinates me, is how much things are still the same. Emotions don't seem to change "

" Very interesting how the mind of a speculator works. This book has nothing to do with investing -- and everything to do with gambling. If you've ever watched "Jim Cramer's Mad Money" this is the pre-1920 version of the same guy. "

" GREATEST EDUCATION ABOUT HUMAN NATURE I HAVE HAD! This book was written by Jesse Livermore under the pen name Edwin Lefevre. I have a first edition hardcover copywrite 1923. He dedicated the book to Jesse Livermore! HA! "

" Great book. Interesting stories. Too bd the guy blows his brains out, penniless. "

" best book on the stock market, it's history and how things never change. "

" Great book for someone who wants to get excited about the financial markets. As far as applying its teachings to today's markets... not so much. "

" you may enjoy this if you are a trader and or appreciate early wall street. "

" History repeats itself and this book is just great at showing how human nature doesn't change. "
