    Description of The New Market Wizards

    Some traders distinguish themselves from the herd. How do these spectacular winners whose success occurs across a spectrum of financial markets do it? What separates them from the others? What can they teach the average trader or investor? In 'The Market Wizards', these wildly successful traders - some largely unknown - relate the financial strategies that have rocketed them to success.

    Asking the questions that readers with an interest or involvement in the financial markets would love to pose to the financial superstars, Jack D. Schwager gets these financial wizards to share their insights. Entertaining, informative, and invaluable, 'The New Market Wizards' is destined to become another Schwager classic.
