    Can't say if it's the best since I haven't read but a small number of them, but it's certainly the best I've read.

    Where did you get the CD's?
    I really like rereading it when I can, but staring at a book is the last thing that I want to do after staring at a screen all day.

  7. Quote from maczter:[/i]

    "The way in which someone chooses to end their life doesn't change the wisdom of the lessons taught by the stories shared during their life before they chose to end it"

    Just for historical accuracy, Livermore was suffering from inoperable cancer when he chose to end his life... Reminiscences of a Stock Operator, in mho, was probably the best book ever written regarding the psychology of the trader, and of the market place, by someone who actually traded for a living... much better than Tharp, Douglas, Elder etc.. If you can get your hands on it, read also Livermore's book "How to trade in stocks" (1940 original version, not the Traders Press update by Richard Smitten).

    when you read about people in the book saying "but it's different this time!" 100 years ago...then see people posting "but it's different this time!" on ET now...you realize just how little markets change.
