Unknown Market Wizards

The Best Traders You've Never Heard Of

By: Jack D. Schwager

Narrated by: DJ Holte

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 percent 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 percent 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 percent.

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 humor and revelations about the human side of trading throughout.

The result is a engrossing new collection of trading wisdom, brimming with insights that can help all traders improve their outcomes.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Best book to date

Absolutely brilliant book which explores side of traders most people have not heard of.
Highly recommended for any independent traders out there or anyone who is remotely interesting in trading. It explores journeys of hard working traders with various background and different paths.
Absolutely brilliant

I loved this book but......

There is no but lol thank you so much for another book Jack loved it

Excellent listen

Full of useful stories and principals, both expected and unorthodox. At the very least it should act as a reminder of your foundation and why you trade

Great Book

I really enjoyed this. I’m a long term investor and I’m curious about trading. This book really enlightened me!

great book

loved it. liked all the stories behind the traders and the failures was also relative to some that I have experience just not at the same cost

Another great edition!

Another great interviews, another look into strategies of unknown market wizards, another great edition. Love it 👌

Incredible feat by narrator

Great book with fascinating insights. But the narration takes this to another level. I was apprehensive to buy because the Q&A format isn’t always great for audio. But Holte does an amazing job with the material, clearly delineating between Schaefer and his subjects through accents and affectations - without being a distraction.

Well done

Thought provoking and as always the best insights are in causing you to review your own edge and methodology.

The stories

First chapter was whatever, I was about to give up on it. But I kept going and not gonna lie, it was amazing to listen to different type of traders and their approaches.

Great collection of trading lessons learned!

I really liked the recap of the characteristics that most, if not all, of the traders mentioned tended to have, things like good risk management, high awareness of their emotional states, a trading “edge,” and a love for trading!
