Publisher's Summary
First published in 1923, Reminiscences of a Stock Operator is the fictionalized biography of Jesse Livermore, one of the greatest speculators who ever lived. Now, almost 90 years later, it remains the most widely read, highly recommended investment book ever written. Generations of investorshave found that it has more to teach them about themselves and other investors than years of experience in the market. They have also discovered that its trading advice and keen analyses of market price movements ring as true today as in 1923.
Jesse Livermore won and lost tens of millions of dollars playing the stock and commodities markets during the early 1900s. So potent a market force was he in his day that, in 1929, he was widely believed to be the man responsible for causing the Crash.
Originally reviewed in The New York Times as a nonfiction book, Reminiscences of a Stock Operator vividly recounts Livermore's mastery of the markets from the age of 14. Always good at figures, he learns, early on, that he can predict which way the numbers will go. Starting out with an investment of five dollars, he amasses a fortune by his early twenties and establishes himself as a major player on the Street. Bullish in bear markets, and bearish among bulls, he claims that only suckers gamble on the market. The trick, he advises, is to protect yourself by balancing your investments, and selling big on the way down. Livermore goes broke three times, but he comes back each time feeling richer for the learning experience.
Offering profound insights into the motivations, attitudes, and feelings shared by every investor, Reminiscences of a Stock Operator is a timeless instructional tale that will enrich the lives – and the portfolios – of today's traders as it has those of generations past.

Great insight
It was good to hear the insights into the reading of Jesse Livermore. I was waiting for the ending to see how it went as we know his ending

Truly delicious. Apples of gold framed in silver
There is no doubt in my mind, if you are a trader. This book is worth every penny. The more you listen too it, the more one finds his own way. its easy to be influenced by others. But only a true speculator listens to his own proven voice of reason and insight.

Fantastic book, but the Audible version is broken
The book starts half way through and then goes back to the beginning, and the chapters are broken with no titles or any way to know where the beginning is.
I enjoyed it but I was disappointed it wasn't fully functional. It should be even cheaper in my opinion, considering that fact, but it's a brilliant story and the performance was solid.

Chapters out of order!
The book appears to start someway through and then at chapter 68 the start of the story begins ( with the Wiley books introduction and everything ). Quite a head spin. can't recommend the file, can recommend the story though, so hopefully it gets fixed
