Movie: The Wolf of Wall Street

Quote from TraDaToR:

I read the book. I guess it will be fun but with no interesting "trading" material ( or any trading material for that matter ).

Just the typical wall street excess movie. The guy arrives on Wall Street, becomes a millionaire in 2 years, start snorting blow waking up, doing illegal stuff... The masses will be pleased, much better than the real life of indian programmers doing HFT( They actually work and stare at computers all day while doing no coke, who wants to see that? ).

Why are you such a jerk about it? Have you even read the book? It is a comedy, and a true story one too. It has nothing to do with trading, nor was it intended to.

This guy was real. Name me another "Wall Street movie" that was true. If you want trading entertainment, well...read ET :D .

The moral of the movie is to show what happens when ethics are thrown away. In fact, he ran a brokerage firm, and ripped people off via boiler room style. Hardly trading in the ordinary sense.

With Martin Scorsese, I think the movie will be great. The book was a good story. I only read the first one however.
