But the one thatmay ring truest is this: There is no Holy Grail in trading. Whatworks for one may not work for another, or for you. Fortunately forus, there's a wide enough variety of portraiture in Hedge FundMarket Wizards that at least a few lessons should resonate.— br> “Determining how great traders acquire and use theirspecial skills has been an elusive quest. We have no shortage ofcookbooks on how to trade, but only a limited number of booksdescribe the decision processes of those who speculate as aprofession. Trader confessionals exist often as testimonies toegos, but few focus on the details of decision making.

Even inthe interviews of well-known traders, Schwager’s probingquestions extract many new insights.”—FAJ Book Review “Even in the interviews of well-known traders,Schwager’s probing questions extract many new insights. TheEd Thorp interview, which is the longest, is almost worthy of abook in itself.”—CFA Institute review
