I’m reading Market Wizards by Jack D. Schwager. It was on my list for so long. Finally, reading it now.

%%
Good read -re read .
\I'm re reading old WSJ candle charts with 200 day moving average.
Looks like WSJ finally borrowed a 200dma from IBD

I just got this book and super interested to understand what went on.

Yeah I got this one as well.

Yeah I got this one as well.

%%
I did not get much @ all thru that book\ even though he found one good race to the bottom.
Older IBD newspaper clipping about 4 great places to add to a Winner\ but that's an uptrend+ the chart has only 3 places added on a single stock\LOL

I had a lot of driving to do on Friday, so loaded up with some extra audiobooks in addition to my other reading this week:

Socrates
In 90 Minutes
By Paul Strathern

Quick and basic audiobook.​

St. Augustine
In 90 Minutes
By Paul Strathern

Another quick and basic audiobook.​

financial statements
DeMYSTiFieD
A Self-Teaching Guide
By Bonita Kramer & Christie Johnson
★★★

A good book. One which I may re-read again down the road sometime. Covers all basics from balance-sheets to cash-flows and ratios. Tricks on looking up suspicious books, etc. Good stuff.​

The Investment Answer
By Gordon Murray

This 2-hour audiobook wasn't too bad actually. Much better than most.​

Philosophy
A Very Short Introduction
By Edward Craig

A pretty good 4-hour audiobook, which went into a lot of details on Socrates to Kant and Hegel. Very good stuff.​

The Birth of NETFLIX and the Amazing Life of an Idea
That Will NEVER Work
By Marc Randolph 'Co-Founder and first CEO of NetFlix'

9 hour long audiobook. As a holder of Netflix stock, I'm glad to have got more details into the very early stages of the company. There is a reminder in here to all CEOs with hubris, how Blockbuster could have bought NetFlix on the super cheap at the time, but decided to pass on the deal. Ouch...​

And just for laughs, I am reading a Cramer book currently:

 

[Fx_Jezz5]

I am reading Currency Trading for Dummies by Brian Dolan.

 

[Swiss_cheese]

Changing World Order by Ray Dalio

Changing World Order by Ray Dalio

I've still got that on my reserve list with the library. Unfortunately, there's a bunch of people ahead of me waiting on all the copies, lol.

I'm still on chapter III in the Cramer book, it's ok so far. Also, I just started reading Bloomberg by Bloomberg tonight, so far it's interesting. Never paid much attention to him before, so didn't know he got his ass fired from Salomon for example.

I am more into watching trading related videos and less reading books.

I was so busy last week that I didn't even give an update...all that I really remember was finishing off Jacks on Tax. Unless you're filing your T1, then this is of no concern to you.

I also finished Bloomberg by Bloomberg. It was ok, but I had no interest in the last few chapters of on and on talk about his philanthropy. The guy sounds like a politician. lol

It was more-so interesting to read about the development of the Bloomberg terminal, and battles vs the Quotron boxes, etc.

Surprise, Bloomberg won, Quotrons are history. lol

I have so much craziness going on right now with the FTX bankruptcy and crashing crypto-markets, that it may take me a couple weeks before I finish off any of my other books, like the Cramer one on Getting Rich Slowly.

Will try to post an update next week.
