Summary

Summary

First published in 1923, Reminiscences of a Stock Operator is widely regarded as one of the best investment books of all time. Here, acclaimed journalist and author Edwin Lefèvre presents the fictional biography of Larry Livingstone—a character based on the legendary market speculator Jesse Livermore.

At the age of 15, Livingstone starts working as a quotation-board boy in a brokerage office. He has a natural talent for remembering figures and begins keeping a log of price fluctuations. One day during lunch, a friend compels him to go in on a sure bet, and both boys profit handsomely. From there, Livingstone quits his job, begins buying and selling stock full time, and soon amasses thousands.

Filled with wry observations about the market and trading, Reminiscences of a Stock Operator will satisfy everyone from seasoned market veterans to novice traders.
