I was recently pointed to an interesting documentary video of the Crash of 1929. If market history intrigues you, give it a viewing. Just be aware that it’s nearly an hour long, so you’ll need to have some clear time to get through the whole thing in one sitting.
The Financial Philosopher is at it again. His Thinking Outside of ‘The Game’ post is one which will definitely make you ponder some things.
Brett Steenbarger’s latest post is Greatness in Life and Trading. As always, he makes some very insightful comments about approaching things in life, to include trading.
Brett also recently linked to a good post on the Options for Rookies blog entitled Premature Celebration. It’s on the subject of over-confidence. I, for one, am very familiar with that. It repeatedly kick me in the tail, and not just in trading.
