About the Author
Jack Schwager is an executive director and senior portfolio manager at Fortune Group, an international hedge fund advisory firm. He is the principal investment manager of Fortune's Market Wizards Funds. His prior experience includes over 30 years on Wall Street, including 22 years as director of futures research for some of Wall Street's leading firms, and ten years as the co-principal of a commodity trading advisory business. Mr Schwager began his career with Reynolds Securities as a research analyst (1971 to 1973), and then moved to Loeb Rhoades Hornblower where he became director of futures research (1973 to 1979). From 1979 to 1983 he was director of futures research at Smith Barney, and from 1983 to 1984 he was director of research (for one trading group) at Commodities Corporation. He was director of futures research at Paine Webber from 1984 to 1988, and director of futures research at Prudential Securities from 1988 to 1996. Between 1996 and 1999 he continued to work for Prudential as a consultant. Mr Schwager has written extensively on the futures industry and great traders (in all financial markets). His first book, A Complete Guide to the Futures Markets, published in 1984 and is considered to be one of the classic reference works in the field. More than a decade later he revised and expanded this original work into the three-volume series, Schwager on Futures, consisting of Fundamental Analysis (1995), Technical Analysis (1996), and Managed Trading: Myths and Truths (1996). He is also the author of Getting Started in Technical Analysis (1999), which is part of John Wiley's popular Getting Started series. Mr Schwager is perhaps best known for his best-selling series of interviews with the greatest hedge fund managers of the last two decades, which includes Market Wizards (1989 and 2006), The New Market Wizards (1992), and Stock Market Wizards (2001). Mr Schwager is a frequent seminar speaker and has lectured on a range of analytical topics with particu
