Stock Market Rollercoaster Résumé

Stock Market Rollercoaster: A Story of Risk, Greed and Temptation Alexander Davidson

Stock Market Rollercoaster is a novel about the world of share dealing. John is a dissatisfied teacher who yearns to escape from his humdrum world into the dynamic arena of international finance. We follow him as he starts at a share dealing firm and witness his rise from naive trading floor junior to worldly-wise trader fighting to survive on the cut-throat main dealing floor. His story is an abject lesson in the perils, illusions, dreams and nightmares of both clients and dealers in the world of the stock market. Stock Market Rollercoaster is a unique, powerful investment guide and tells more about the world of stock broking than any other book. It lists the main principles taught by his mentor providing a 'Rules from the Masterclass' chapter by chapter listing at the end of the book.
