movies on trading

Well we need these guys, makes my account bigger.. HAHA

Quote from travis:

The interesting thing is that such a bad trader could become so popular for a while and cause so many problems. The bank I work for has a trading desk full of college graduates that know nothing about trading, trade with basic technical analysis, and I have knowledge that they lose money even a whole year in a row, and still are not fired. Everyone in the management and in the trading room finds it normal to say "oh well, you know... you can't win every year".

25th Hour has a great trading scene and is a great movie.

why, do you trade Nikkei futures at the SIMEX?

Many bank executives don't know much about trading. That is one of the causes of Leeson and the stuff I see going on at the bank I work for (many traders not making money for years, and still not getting fired). They know about banking but they don't know about trading. If they knew about trading, probably they wouldn't be bank executives. I am not saying it applies to all, but to many of them.

There was a unique advert by Mercedes a few years ago that was actually made to promote their new SL Roadster but it was made to look like a trading sci-fi movie

The preview gained a lot of recognition, it starred Benicio Del Torro as a mysterious figure that had uncanny stock picking abilities. The spooks and the SEC were onto him etc,etc.

I think it was directed by Michael Mann and was canned for a later date...it looked pretty good all the same.
