Most Popular Books by Jack D. Schwager

THE INVESTMENT CLASSIC "I''ve read Market Wizards at several stages of my career as it shows the staying power of good down-to-earth wisdoms of true practitioners with skin in the game. This is the central document showing the heuristics that real-life traders use to manage their affairs, how people who do rather than talk have done things. Twenty years from now, it will still be fresh. There is no other like it." NASSIM N. TALEB, former derivatives trader, author of The Black Swan, and professor, NYU-Poly "Market Wizards is one of the most fascinating books ever written about Wall Street. A few of the ''Wizards'' are my friends and Jack Schwager has nailed their modus operandi on the head." MARTIN W. ZWEIG, PhD, Editor, The Zweig Forecast "It is difficult enough to develop a method that works. It then takes experience to believe what your method is telling you. But the toughest task of all is turning analysis into money. If you don''t believe it, try it. These guys have it all: a method, the conviction, and the discipline to act decisively time after time, regardless of distractions and pressures. They are heroes of Wall Street, and Jack Schwager''s book brings their characters vividly to life." ROBERT R. PRECHTER, JR., Editor, The Elliott Wave Theorist

Fascinating insights into the hedge fund traders who consistently outperform the markets, in their own words From bestselling author, investment expert, and Wall Street theoretician Jack Schwager comes a behind-the-scenes look at the world of hedge funds, from fifteen traders who''ve consistently beaten the markets. Exploring what makes a great trader a great trader, Hedge Fund Market Wizards breaks new ground, giving readers rare insight into the trading philosophy and successful methods employed by some of the most profitable individuals in the hedge fund business. Presents exclusive interviews with fifteen of the most successful hedge fund traders and what they''ve learned over the course of their careers Includes interviews with Jamie Mai, Joel Greenblatt, Michael Platt, Ray Dalio, Colm O’Shea, Ed Thorp, and many more Explains forty key lessons for traders Joins Stock Market Wizards, New Market Wizards, and Market Wizards as the fourth installment of investment guru Jack Schwager''s acclaimed bestselling series of interviews with stock market experts A candid assessment of each trader''s successes and failures, in their own words, the book shows readers what they can learn from each, and also outlines forty essential lessons—from finding a trading method that fits an investor''s personality to learning to appreciate the value of diversification—that investment professionals everywhere can apply in their own careers. Bringing together the wisdom of the true masters of the markets, Hedge Fund Market Wizards is a collection of timeless insights into what it takes to trade in the hedge fund world.

Taps into the minds of today’s trading superstars to reveal the secrets of their astonishing success In these absorbing interviews with star performers in the financial markets, Schwager humanizes the mechanics and psychology behind the trading world in such sophisticated instruments as currencies, stock options, commodity futures, and mutual-fund accounts by individuals, investment firms and group-trading computerized "money machines." One trader focuses on market response to news events, another calculates mathematical probabilities--one even cocks an ear to the noise level on the exchange floor. All rank assiduous research, self-confidence, a specific plan and the courage to cut losses among essentials to success. Few consider their work gambling, but Schwager entertainingly argues that a successful trader needs many of the qualities of a good poker player. Though the subject matter is esoteric, there is much here to attract the general reader, and Schwager appends a "primer" of technical basics. You may not know their names, but they are the trading elite—a select group of super-money makers whose trading prowess has become the stuff of legend. They are speculators in everything from stocks and bonds to options and commodity futures who make millions—often in a matter of hours—and leave their peers in the dust. In this enthralling sequel to his international bestseller, Market Wizards, Jack Schwager interviews these stars, asking the questions that everyone with an interest in the financial markets would love know the answers to and receiving the kind of frank, occasionally bewildering answers that make this book as much a page-turner as its predecessor. Interviews with spectacular winners across the full spectrum of financial markets, revealing how they do it and what, personally, separates them from the herd Superstar traders describe the financial strategies behind their phenomenal successes, as well as the painfully instructive lessons learned from their worst losses Reveals that, despite their various quirks and differences, all the biggest winners rank diligent research, self-confidence, a specific plan and the courage to cut losses as the keys to winning big Throughout, Schwager provides valuable insight and analysis to help put interviewees responses into perspective, and he provides a technical basics primer at the end of the book

REVISED PAPERBACK EDITION WITH NEW MATERIAL IN EVERY CHAPTER Jack D. Schwager has returned to the traders to ask them how they navigated the unprecedented markets of 2020–2022, including the pandemic bear market, an abrupt reversal to new highs, rising inflation, and the emergence of another bear market. All chapters updated with exclusive new interviews with the Unknown Market Wizards. The Market Wizards are back! Unknown Market Wizards continues in the three-decade tradition of the hugely popular Market Wizards series, interviewing exceptionally successful traders to learn how they achieved their extraordinary performance results. The twist in Unknown Market Wizards is that the featured traders are individuals trading their own accounts. They are unknown to the investment world. Despite their anonymity, these traders have achieved performance records that rival, if not surpass, the best professional managers. Some of the stories include: - A trader who turned an initial account of $2,500 into $50 million. - A trader who achieved an average annual return of 337% over a 13-year period. - A trader who made tens of millions using a unique approach that employed neither fundamental nor technical analysis. - A former advertising executive who used classical chart analysis to achieve a 58% average annual return over a 27-year trading span. - A promising junior tennis player in the UK who abandoned his quest for a professional sporting career for trading and generated a nine-year track record with an average annual return just under 300%. World-renowned author and trading expert Jack D. Schwager is our guide. His trademark knowledgeable and sensitive interview style encourages the Wizards to reveal the fascinating details of their training, experience, tactics, strategies, and their best and worst trades. There are dashes of humour and revelations about the human side of trading throughout. The result is an engrossing new collection of trading wisdom, brimming with insights that can help all traders improve their outcomes.

This decade has witnessed the most dynamic bull market in US stock history, a collapse in commodity prices, and dramatic failures in some of the world''s leading hedge funds. How have some traders managed to significantly outperform a stock market that,until recently, moved virtually straight up? This book will feature interviews with those traders who achieved phenomenal success, from an Ohio farmer who has constantly made triple-digit returns, to a Turkish emigre who transformed a $16000 account into $6 million, to spectacularly successful professional hedge-fund managers such as Michael Lancer of the Lancer Group and Michael Masters of Capital Management. Today, the action is on the stock market. This book will be a must-have for that sector, as well as for the legions of individuals who eagerly bought Market Wizards.

An accessible look at the art of investing and how to adopt the practices of top professionals What differentiates the highly successful market practitioners—the Market Wizards—from ordinary traders? What traits do they share? What lessons can the average trader learn from those who achieved superior returns for decades while still maintaining strict risk control? Jack Schwager has spent the past 25 years interviewing the market legends in search of the answers—a quest chronicled in four prior Market Wizards volumes totaling nearly 2,000 pages. In The Little Book of Market Wizards, Jack Schwager seeks to distill what he considers the essential lessons he learned in conducting nearly four dozen interviews with some of the world''s best traders. The book delves into the mindset and processes of highly successful traders, providing insights that all traders should find helpful in improving their trading skills and results. Each chapter focuses on a specific theme essential to market success Describes how all market participants can benefit by incorporating the related traits, behaviors, and philosophies of the Market Wizards in their own trading Filled with compelling anecdotes that bring the trading messages to life, and direct quotes from the market greats that resonate with the wisdom born of experience and skill Stepping clearly outside the narrow confines of most investment books, The Little Book of Market Wizards focuses on the value of understanding one''s self within the context of successful investing.

Bestselling author, Jack Schwager, challenges the assumptions at the core of investment theory and practice and exposes common investor mistakes, missteps, myths, and misreads When it comes to investment models and theories of how markets work, convenience usually trumps reality. The simple fact is that many revered investment theories and market models are flatly wrong—that is, if we insist that they work in the real world. Unfounded assumptions, erroneous theories, unrealistic models, cognitive biases, emotional foibles, and unsubstantiated beliefs all combine to lead investors astray—professionals as well as novices. In this engaging new book, Jack Schwager, bestselling author of Market Wizards and The New Market Wizards, takes aim at the most perniciously pervasive academic precepts, money management canards, market myths and investor errors. Like so many ducks in a shooting gallery, Schwager picks them off, one at a time, revealing the truth about many of the fallacious assumptions, theories, and beliefs at the core of investment theory and practice. A compilation of the most insidious, fundamental investment errors the author has observed over his long and distinguished career in the markets Brings to light the fallacies underlying many widely held academic precepts, professional money management methodologies, and investment behaviors A sobering dose of real-world insight for investment professionals and a highly readable source of information and guidance for general readers interested in investment, trading, and finance Spans both traditional and alternative investment classes, covering both basic and advanced topics As in his best-selling Market Wizard series, Schwager manages the trick of covering material that is pertinent to professionals, yet writing in a style that is clear and accessible to the layman

Revered by many, reviled by some, technical analysis is the art and science of deciphering price activity to better understand market behavior and identify trading opportunities.

Princípios e lições dos maiores traders de todos os tempos. “Um livro cheio de insights. Esclarecedor e inestimável.” – Joel Greenblatt “A essência do trading em um livro repleto de histórias inesquecíveis.” – Ed Seykota, autor de The Trading Tribe Qual a diferença entre os profissionais mais bem-sucedidos do mercado financeiro e os traders comuns? Como é possível alcançar retornos altos e constantes num universo sedutor porém arriscado? Há três décadas, o escritor e trader Jack Schwager entrevista os maiores nomes do mercado em busca de suas estratégias e seus segredos. Dessas conversas resultou a série Os magos do mercado financeiro, que a Sextante publicará no Brasil. Este livro condensa as lições mais importantes que o autor colheu ao longo dos anos. Cada capítulo aborda um tema específico essencial para o sucesso no mercado. Para estreantes, ele serve como bússola. Para os mais experientes, permite mergulhar na mentalidade, nos processos e no comportamento de investidores que deixaram sua marca na história do trading – e ganharam muito dinheiro. Jack Schwager conta histórias que dão vida aos aprendizados e enfatiza a importância de que o investidor entenda a si mesmo para alcançar seus objetivos.

Schwager convida o leitor a mergulhar na mente de alguns dos traders mais consagrados de todos os tempos, decifrando seus segredos, técnicas e emoções, em busca de seu próprio método para se destacar no mercado. “Estes traders têm método, convicção e disciplina. São heróis de Wall Street, descritos maravilhosamente por Jack Schwager.” – Robert Prechter Jr., investidor No final dos anos 1980, a insatisfação com seu desempenho no mercado levou o investidor Jack Schwager a se perguntar por que alguns traders eram tão bem-sucedidos. Como conseguiam faturar milhões em poucas horas? Qual era o segredo deles para repetir um desempenho espetacular ano após ano? Que disciplina mental se impunham para vencer onde tantos fracassavam? Decidido a encontrar respostas, ele entrevistou lendas do trading como Ed Seykota e Michael Marcus, dando início à série Os Magos do Mercado Financeiro, adorada por investidores do mundo inteiro. Neste livro, que inaugurou a série e se mantém atual, o autor conta histórias como estas: • O trader que perdeu tudo várias vezes até transformar uma carteira de 30 mil dólares em 80 milhões • Um ex-analista que ao longo de sete anos obteve retornos médios mensais de 25% • Um engenheiro do MIT cujo método informatizado permitiu um retorno de 250.000% em 16 anos

“Os livros da série Os Magos do Mercado Financeiro mostram como os operadores administram suas carteiras na vida real, o que eles fazem e não o que dizem fazer.” — Nassim N.Taleb, autor de Antifrágile A lógica do cisne negro “Jack Schwager é um mestre em fazer entrevistas que revelam histórias incríveis e segredos dos melhores traders do mundo, acessíveis mesmo para iniciantes.” – Raoul Pal, CEO e cofundador do Real Vision Group Neste livro, o investidor Jack Schwager nos apresenta 11 traders que gerenciam a própria carteira – com resultados impressionantes e consistentes. Eles não são celebridades, nem sequer nomes conhecidos no mercado. No entanto, seu desempenho se equipara ao dos melhores gestores profissionais, chegando a superá-los em várias situações. Você vai conhecer: • Um trader que começou negociando uma carteira de 2.500 dólares e obteve lucros de 50 milhões de dólares • Um tenista que trocou as raquetes pelo trading e conseguiu um retorno médio anual de cerca de 300% ao longo de quase uma década • Um investidor que criou sua própria categoria de análise do mercado e usa até o TikTok para decidir o que comprar • Um office-boy da República Tcheca cujo desempenho excedeu o de 99% dos fundos de hedge – fazendo day trading O autor extrai de seus entrevistados detalhes fascinantes de sua forma de negociar: suas estratégias, as melhores e piores negociações que fizeram, os momentos de estresse e euforia. Esta edição atualizada conta como esses magos se saíram durante os difíceis anos da pandemia de covid-19.

Market Wizards: The Next Generation continues in the tradition of the Market Wizards series, interviewing exceptionally successful traders to learn how they achieved their extraordinary performance results—seeking the insights that can help all traders improve their outcomes. One distinguishing characteristic of Market Wizards: The Next Generation is that the interviews will place particular emphasis on the early careers of these traders—how they broke into the business and their early challenges and experiences. The selection of traders will include both well recognized names who managed billions in assets and completely unknown traders with exceptional track records. It is anticipated that the book will include a section on Commodities Corp, one of the earliest proprietary trading firms that hired or allocated to some of the world’s best traders, and interview or narrative chapters on some of their star traders.
