Product description

From the Back Cover

"Larry Hite was one of the pioneers of trend-following trading. He founded Mint Asset Management, which became the first billion-dollar hedge fund. The Rule is a breezy read in which Hite reflects on his life and provides his take on the lessons of trading and life--spoiler alert, they are both the same."
--
Jack Schwager, author of the Market Wizards series

"Super traders that stand the test of time are a rare breed - Larry Hite is one of them; he's a living legend in the trading space. I love his book! It has great lessons for trading and life. It's definitely on my top list of stock market must reads."
--
Mark Minervini, U.S. Investing Champion, featured in Stock Market Wizards and author of the #1 best-seller Trade Like a Stock Market Wizard

"Larry Hite's chapter in Schwager's first Market Wizards book was the one that most affected my trading and career. His Rules in this book on bet size, embracing loss, and dealing with psychology are so important to trading success. This book is a must read for every trader."
--
Tom Basso, founder of Trendstat Capital Management, Inc

"In addition to sharing phenomenal wisdom and excellent trading principles, the book chronicles Larry's life story, from underdog to the highest level of trading success. The principles he generously shares can improve your personal and trading life."
--
Steve Burns, NewTraderU.com

"From a dyslexic, visually impaired youth to a legendary multi-millionaire Market Wizard, Larry is living proof that anyone can overcome the greatest of life odds to achieve success in the financial markets and in life. This book is an inspiration to traders, investors and anyone who wants to live their life to their fullest potential!"

Para quem é Trader e busca conhecer experiências bem sucedidas, o livro não entrega o que promete. Trata mais de uma autobiografia do autor do que uma experiência detalhada como trader.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 September 2019
I believe I am the first person to review this book who has actually purchased it. So, this review has no bias but my own and is totally independent.

It is important to state, this book does not provide you with exact rules saying you must buy here, sell here, place a stop here and diversify across these specific markets, and so on. So, please do not think you are buying a set of exact "Rules" in a list format. Fortunately, these tactics are not shared with us as the majority of us would not stick to it or understand its purpose.

It is even more important to know the strategies Mr. Hite uses and continues to use are shared with us. Following the trend, cutting losses, diversify to reduce risk and catch trends are shared with examples. This gives us the ability to design a system which we will stick to and can be profitable. As long as we use the mentioned fundamental "Rules". My own backtesting as shown this to be true.

There is plenty of information provided in this book which personally gives me more ideas to test and improve my own systems. It also provides ideas which I never even considered. "Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience".

The book tells us how Mr. Hite applied trend following strategies not just in the market but in life. Can you really be a trend follower in the markets but not in your personal life? Will there be a greater chance of internal conflict which may break your rules if you are not?

The additional advantage of reading this book is that it fills in the gap to Mr. Hites interviews in Market Wizards, also, the information provided by Alex Greyserman in Trend Following with Managed Futures and Mr. Covel series of books such as Trend Following and Trend Commandments, and many other books. This was really helpful to me as I had a lot of questions I felt on Mr. Hite could answer. This book has answered a lot of those questions.

I would rate this book amongst Edwin Lefevre - Reminiscences Of A Stock Operator, Nicolas Darvas - How I Made $2,000,000 In The Stock Market, Michael W. Covel - Trend Following, and Jack D. Schwager - Market Wizards.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone beginning or experienced in trading.

Thank you Mr. Hite. The book was well written and very clear.
