Overview

MORE ROGUE TRADERS is about a world cloaked in secrecy and acronyms. It aims to educate about the financial industry and the complex financial instruments involved in schemes committed by rogue traders. Each chapter focuses on one specific trader and the role they played in bringing down a financial institution. In these cases, we're not talking millions, we're talking hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars in losses. More Rogue Traders in the context of a real-life story has it all: a rise-and-fall, money made, money lost, greed, corruption and the bankers who tried to hide it.

This book should be a best seller! The stories are written clearly enough so that readers without any financial sophistication will understand what transpired. Not only does Skyrm thoroughly explain the rogue trading strategies, but he does so from the point of view of the rogue trader, along with knowledge of that particular financial market. A bonus is the psychological explanation of what was going on inside the brains of the rogue traders themselves and what drove them to dig themselves into an even deeper hole. This book will be recommended reading for every trader that works for me and I wouldn't be surprised if any of these stories are scripted into a major movie. Ray Cahnman, Founder and Chairman of the trading firm Transmarket Group and well-known professional trader
