• A security guard turned trader who parlayed $5,000 into over $100 million in under 12 years.
• A volunteer firefighter who has not had a single losing month in over 10 years of trading.

Their knowledgeable and incisive interview style encourages the Wizards to reveal the fascinating details of their training, experience, tactics, and strategies, as well as their best and worst trades. There are dashes of humour and revelations about the human side of trading throughout.
