I hope they make this book into a movie. MD I loved this book! It was one of those stories that really draws you in and is hard to put down. It explores the evolving life of the main character "Damon" who is an expat, trader and traveler seeking success in work and life. With all its twists and turns, Damon's professional and personal journey takes you through the many highs and lows of a workaholic perfectionist seeking to master the markets while making some stark realizations along the way.

Concise , urgent style re information/misinformation technology and Psychiatry among the movers and shakers of the finance world . Very talented author .. "Diary of a trader" according to Raza Ali. Really enjoyed this day in the life an execution trader told as a novel. Lots of real life details that aren't usually covered in nonfiction let alone a novel. If you are a trader or work in the financial markets you will enjoy the book
