Traders at Work: How the World's Most Successful Traders Make Their Living in the Markets
Tim Bourquinis the co-founder of both the Online Trading Expo (now Traders Expo) and the Forex Trading Expo. While a police officer with the Los Angeles Police Department, Tim was trading the stock and currency markets by morning and arresting criminals by night. When he went looking for a convention for traders to learn more about how other traders were approaching the markets, he couldn't find one. So in 1999, along with a business partner, Tim started an annual convention and tradeshow for online traders and investors. Those events, which are held each year in New York, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles, continue to be the premier conventions for active retail traders.�After speaking with countless traders throughout the past 14 years, Tim realized that the best way to learn how to make money trading was to ask those who were already doing it every day. Tim set out to find the best in the business and ask them exactly how they made their money. Some people talked to him and others refused, but through persistence, he slowly was able to interview hundreds of traders about the strategies they employ, the software they use, and how they became confident in the markets. In 2006 Tim founded TraderInterviews.com, an online media site featuring those frank discussions.Nicholas Mango�is a freelance writer and editor whose work in the active trading community spans more than seven years and numerous Web portals and major media outlets. As a former Division I collegiate athlete, Mango experienced firsthand the pressure to consistently perform at a high level and the many highs and lows encountered along the way. While working his first Traders Expo in 2006, it became clear that thousands of traders were taking their lumps, just as he had before, while facing an adversary that is equally alluring and potentially even more unforgiving: the financial markets. There began a strong commitment to helping traders find clarity and the answers that could form the basis for long-lasting and prosperous careers in the markets. Mango has since worked with hundreds of professional traders and industry experts to publish their most reliable, clearly stated, and actionable methods and strategies for trading a variety of markets and time frames.
