Interview subjects include Michael Marcus, who multiplied his company account 2500-fold in a decade, and his protégé Bruce Kovner, perhaps the world’s largest currency and futures trader at the time.  The interview also features interviews with 4 traders of stocks futures, including William O’Neil, his protégé David Ryan, and the man who won big several times in the U.S. Trading Championships, S&P futures trader Marty Schwartz.
