Review Pit Bull: Lessons from Wall Street’s Champion Day Trader 

by MARTIN S. SCHWARTZ

Description

The book, “Pit Bull: Lessons from Wall Street’s Champion Day Trader” is a fruit of Martin S. Schwart’s life as a Wall Street trader who has seen it all. Coming from the E.F. Hutton as a Financial Analyst, the author upped and left the firm and decided that he would be well off in the American Stock Exchange. This book is a testament to his expertise in trading S&P Futures.

The book details how one can easily get into a trade and out of it when it turns sour. The author instructs that one should not hold on too long on a financial instrument; he only holds on to it for a day. 

The book had been written in such a way that the readers are able to understand the otherwise technical-sounding terms. The entire material is a narrative that feels personal, like someone telling a story that you simply can’t wait to unfold.

Readers agree that the book is funny and relatable. While this is the case, there are readers who think that the contents within the book are a rehash or simply a different packaging of trading truths that mainstream thought already knows. 

Nevertheless, the approach of the book and the language are considered gems amongst the existing trading literature.
