Why read it?

1 author picked The Way of the Warrior Trader as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This is my second favorite book on the mental game of trading.  

It’s written in an easy-to-read manner and the connections McCall makes to the ancient samurai code of “Bushido” are still very relevant to today’s active trader.

If you start with building an unshakeable mindset, all your work of system development or edge optimization will be fully rewarded… Because you won’t be cutting trades or making emotionally impulsive choices that are the “unforced errors” that leak your profits back into the market.

Fail in this mental quest and the markets are nothing more than a gambling vehicle.
