3.Market Wizards
“Don’t focus on making money; focus on protecting what you have”
What separates the world’s top traders from the vast majority of unsuccessful investors? Jack Schwager sets out to answer tis question in his interviews with superstar money-makers including Bruce Kovner, Richard Dennis, Paul Tudor Jones, Michel Steinhardt, Ed Seykota, Marty Schwartz, Tom Baldwin
Market Wizards is a collection of interviews with traders who have turned small sums into incredible fortunes. From those interviews, one can extract a great deal of knowledge.
Capital safeguarding is the most important aspect of building wealth – much in line with Warren Buffett’s famous two rules of investing: “Rule no. 1: Don’t lose money. Rule no. 2: Never forget rule no. 1.”
Pride has made a majority of the traders to loose strong sums of capital because they were convinced that they were right, which caused them to stick with loosing positions that eventually cleared them out.
Momentum/trend-following seems to be the strategy that have made the majority of these traders rich. The traders “ride” an uptrend by going long or a downtrend by shorting; as soon as the trend changes, they exit the position.
“Traders frequently confuse the ideas of winning and losing trades with good and bad trades. A good trade can lose money, and a bad trade can make money.”

4. Trading in the zone
“You must create a new version of yourself to become good trader”
Why do only some people achieve consistent success as a traders while others fail? Do the successful people have special insider knowledge? Better trading strategies? based on good luck?
In his book Trading in the Zone, Mark Douglas says one factor differentiate successful traders: a winning mindset. To achieve regular trading success, Douglas says, we need to train ourselves to think differently, practice regularly and he shows us how.
First one is fundamental analysis is a method of assessing the value of an investment using mathematical models.
The second one technical analysis. Douglas explains that technical analysis looks at patterns in the price of an investment to guess how that investment’s price is likely to act in the future.
According to Douglas, most of us don’t use information from our market analyses in a sensible way. Why? Because we don’t understand probabilities. Douglas maintains that a knowledge of probabilities is essential to overcome the mental barriers that prevent us from achieving continuous trading success
Market activity is based on probabilities, which means that every outcome is unique, different and random, totally different from every other outcome. As we’ve already mentioned, patterns do emerge; however, you can’t rely on those patterns to predict outcomes with 100% certainty. As Douglas says, this year’s market activity might appear identical to previous years’ activity, but the similarity doesn’t run any deeper than that.
One can read the historical patterns, but same thing will never repeat.
