Download or read book Jesse Livermore s Methods of Trading in Stocks written by Jesse Livermore and published by Colchis Books. This book was released on 1984 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Livermore started trading in securities when he was fourteen years old. He made his first thousand when a mere boy. He has practiced every device known to the active speculator, studied every speculative theory, and dealt in about every active security listed on the New York Stock Exchange. He has piled up gigantic fortunes from his commitments, lost them, digested, started all over again—and piled up new fortunes. He has changed his market position in the twinkling of an eye—sold out thousands of shares of long stock, and gone short of thousands of shares more on a decision which required reading only the one word, “but,” in a lengthy ticker statement. If his later experiences were not enough to catch the public fancy, Livermore would have won it by his greatest feat of all: beating the bucket shops. Beating the cheaters, in fact, was Livermore’s pet plan after things had gone against him and he was forced to start anew on a small-lot basis.

Download or read book Jesse Livermore s Two Books of Market Wisdom written by Jesse Lauriston Livermore and published by . This book was released on 2019-06-27 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, these two works attributed to the great Jesse Livermore are presented together in one volume with a new foreword by Juliette Rogers. Both contain interesting insights into Livermore's life and times as well as the reasons for his success. They remain classics and must reads for every new aspirant in the world of speculation. The two books in this volume were written in the early 1920s, when Livermore was already famous but still ascending to the peak of his wealth. The nightmare of World War I was fading, and the United States had successfully transitioned from a wartime economy into a peacetime powerhouse. Americans became enamored of cars, telephones, radios, and movies. A newfound fascination with celebrities extended beyond film stars and athletes to the rich and powerful. People wanted to know how Wall Street wizards like Jesse Livermore spun their magic. The first book, Reminiscences of a Stock Operator by Edwin Lefèvre, offers keen insight while at the same time adding to the Livermore enigma. Reminiscences is the first-person narrative of a fictional speculator named Larry Livingston, whose life events happen to match precisely those of Jesse Livermore. As a financial journalist, biographer, and novelist, Edwin Lefèvre gave his readers their much-desired glimpse into the lofty world of Wall Street elites. He wrote eight other books, but none matched the success of Reminiscences, which has remained in print since 1923 and been translated into numerous languages. Even the understated former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan once called it "a font of investing wisdom." In true Livermore fashion, the book itself remains something of a mystery. Specifically, over the decades many readers have wondered if the book's author was not Lefèvre, but none other than Jesse Livermore. The two men were long acquainted and may have traded useful information over the years. A 1967 biography claims that Livermore, shortly before his death, acknowledged writing Reminiscences with guidance from Lefèvre, who served as "editor and coach." This revelation came to the biographer secondhand and without confirmation, so the mystery continues. However, attentive readers may note the narrator's especially gleeful tone whenever windfalls are made or old scores are settled, suggesting a connection more personal than professional. In the years following these publications, Livermore continued to burnish his legend. A 1924 run-up in wheat prices squeezed him out of $3 million, but the following year he recovered his losses and added tremendous profit when the wheat market collapsed. Of course, in this era of modest regulation, markets were vulnerable to manipulation and Livermore--by now nicknamed the "Great Bear of Wall Street"--did not eschew such tactics.
Download or read book Jesse Livermore Boy Plunger written by Tom Rubython and published by . This book was released on 2018-04-07 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boy Plunger is the first full-length biography of the legendary share trader, Jesse Livermore, the most successful stock and commodities trader in the history of the stock market. He became famous in the summer of 1929 when most people believed that the American stock market would continue to rise forever as Wall Street was enjoyed an eight-year winning run. Jesse Livermore started a process that would see him sell $450 million of shares short inside a four week period. As he had forecast, the three 'black' days, Thursday 24th October, Monday 28th October and Tuesday 29th October, saw the market drop dramatically and in a week Wall Street lost $30 billion of value. Livermore made nearly $100 million and overnight became one of the richest men in the world. It remains, adjusted for inflation, the most money ever made by any individual in a period of seven days.

Book excerpt: In dem Bestseller "Reminiscences of a Stock Operator" (bei Wiley 0471 05970 6) wurde er bereits porträtiert. Aber dieses Buch ist die erste umfassende Biographie der Börsenlegende Jesse Livermore. Obwohl Livermore vor über 50 Jahren starb, gilt er bei Spitzenhändlern noch heute als der größte Aktienhändler aller Zeiten. Livermore war ein rätselhafter Einzelgänger, ein Menschenfeind und ein notorischer Geizhals, doch er revolutionierte den Aktienhandel durch innovative Timing-Verfahren, durch Strategien zum Geldmanagement und durch seine Methode des Handelns in aufsteigenden Märkten, d.h. durch Kauf von Werten mit starkem Momentum. Autor Richard Smitten zeichnet hier ein lebendiges Bild von Livermore und der Ära, in der er lebte und arbeitete. Geschickt verbindet er Augenzeugenberichte jener, die ihn kannten, mit faszinierenden Geschichten über sensationelle Liebesabenteuer, Schießereien und Selbstmorde sowie mit einer ausführlichen Darstellung jener Handelsstrategien, die Livermore reich, berühmt und zum größten Aktienhändler gemacht haben, den die Welt je gesehen hat. Eine ebenso interessante wie amüsante Lektüre.
