5.0 out of 5 stars Great insights that apply well beyond Wall Street
This book is one of those rare books that manages to enlighten, inform and advise. I was worried that it was going to be a book by a Wall-street insider intended for other Wall-street insiders, but I was delighted to find just the opposite. Lebron breaks down trading in to a series of laws that are applicable in all sorts of useful ways. What he ultimately concludes is that trading is distilled decision making. Since we all make thousands of decisions a day, it is enlightening to think about how the learnings of market trading can be generally applied to personal decision making. I found myself thinking about these ideas in my personal decisions and especially in decisions I make at work. Aside from people interested in the world of trading and finance, I'd certainly recommend this book to business leaders and management leaders in any field. I am an engineering director myself and found this book super useful. The breakdown of the book in to "laws" made it an easily digestible and fun read. Recommended!
3.0 out of 5 stars Solid Book, Not Necessarily For Traders
It took me a while to understand this book. If you are familiar with "Thinking in Bets" applying sound poker principles to other disciplines then appreciate this book as it tries to apply trading principles to life. It is probably good for non-traders, maybe less impactful for those of us in the profession.The book is a conundrum as the author tries to boil the ocean covering every aspect of trading from his extensive experience. Several chapters, specifically: Risk, Models, and IT/Software could be standalone books (especially risk which is very good).If you are a non trader looking for a unique perspective from a trading pro this is a great book. If you are a trader, maybe less so.
5.0 out of 5 stars unique and insightful
I was a little put off by the cover reviews that said this book will teach me how to think like a trader in ordinary life. Most books that apply lessons of one field to another rely on limited understanding (of one or both fields) and stretched analogies. I'm glad I ignored these reviews and read the book anyway because I learned a lot, not so much about life but about trading. I've been trading for 25 years and every few pages I learned something: either a new idea or a new framing of something I had previously considered.Apart from certain technical publications, this is the best trading book I've read in many years and one of the few that will be of most benefit to experienced people. The only traders who haven't learned from this book are those that haven't yet read it.
5.0 out of 5 stars A trader teaches you to think like one
How should you look for a new car or a new job? In this entertaining book, Agustin Lebron argues that the world of financial trading offers principles that apply to decision-making in general. And although he explains why no book can give a specific strategy that will make money, you will find some advice for your investments here as well. Consider his words, and you should fare better than the bankrupted firms whose mistakes are chronicled in Chapter Eight. Highly recommended.
5.0 out of 5 stars Informative and well-reasoned
The Laws of Trading presents a series of informative and well-reasoned ways on how to think about different aspects of trading. Agustin Lebron’s insights provide a decision-making framework relevant to many areas of life beyond the purely financial. Each law is explained in a self-contained chapter, which allows the reader to learn the laws through a series of convenient reading sessions. The organized structure allows the reader to revisit a specific topic for future reference.
5.0 out of 5 stars Interesting and useful read.
Really enjoyed this book. It gave me some interesting insight into the world of trading but also how my day-to-day life can be framed as trading. Thinking about all sorts of decisions as a trade gives you a great way to try and improve those decisions. I particularly enjoyed chapter 5 on 'edge' and how important it is to get it right.
1.0 out of 5 stars Not insightful at all
Not very insightful for the average retail trader. Reads like a book written by chat GPT , general knowledge and facts. He attempts to give insight into how market makers like jane street operate but its all common knowledge. Not sure if he wrote it to throw retail traders off.
2.0 out of 5 stars Started good... Then was left disappointed.
I assumed that this book that touts itself as a guide to better decision making, would cover this topic at length. Tons of educational examples that were detailed and mostly boring. I listened to a podcast the author was on, very interesting guy with good insight... did not translate into the book.
Buena introducción a la compraventa de productos financieros
Un libro muy bueno para aspirantes o gente que empieza a hacer algo de compraventa de productos financieros por su cuenta.Como bonus tiene un artículo dedicado a la gestión de proyectos de software que es más interesante de lo que parece al principio.
Gives a human overview of trading
I would recommend this book to anybody interested in trading. It gives the reader an idea of the decision making process he needs to develop
One of the most important trading books ever
This book provides a deep first principles analysis of how and why markets move the way they do.You cannot un-see this. It will break many retail trader's hearts, and give a clear guide to whether or not investors should trade (mostly not, unless they have edge, and drawing lines on charts isn't edge)Not all of this is stuff I wanted to read, but I'm glad I did. I'd give it 10 stars if I could
Great read
Great read!!!! I originally bought the book for my brother as a birthday but ended up reading it myself! I particular enjoyed Lebron‘s sense of humor and his strategic thinking. Will definitely incorporate his decision making approach into my work and play life. And will now give the book to my brother :)
Highly recommended!
This book is a must read for anyone with a serious interest in trading but also delivers some great unexpected insights into important day-to-day decision making. The principles are simple but there's also a wealth of information in concrete examples and stories that really add value to the reading. It's a great read!
