From Killing Line to God of Wall Street

Very well written! The writing style is one thing. The group portraits are well written (the nesting is natural, and the control group upgrade is also natural). The core is the content. The conflicts, plots, and operations do not exceed the logic and realistic basis of the drama. The look and feel is natural and comfortable. I hope you will do it! Ha ha ha ha! As for the plot, there is a little hope: I hope that the protagonist's mother will try not to arrange a plot in which the protagonist is in crisis and the protagonist comes to the rescue. Personally, I feel that she has suffered a lot, and readers feel the same way after entering the story. She does not seek a certain glory and counterattack, but maintains peace and health. After all, I love you mom! Also: Are there any other books or pen names? I hope you can read them.

I have seen the latest chapter. The core point of this book is to dig into the details and thoroughly study every line of financial reports and various related news in order to discover the correct direction of the market. This method is correct, but the vast majority of retail investors and financial practitioners cannot do it even if they know it. Even if they do it, they cannot understand the logic behind the details. There is always a pattern throughout the book. Whichever stock the protagonist buys, he must arrange for another person to place an order in the opposite direction as a comparison. Also, unless you are a reborn person, do not touch leverage trading. Even if you think the market has given a definite answer and then copy the answer, leverage can still kill you.

The protagonist will lose a lot in the end, because the protagonist is increasingly being mythologized by the people around him. Strictly speaking, the protagonist is not self-discovering the market, but using the memory of past lives to verify the occurrence of nodes in the market. Once the protagonist is out of the rearview mirror, how much is left for the protagonist? The 2008 subprime mortgage crisis and these big shorts will be closed. God, but later on, Burry went short on AI and went long on Chinese concept stocks and lost money until he retired. Paulson lost more than 80-300 a few years and then switched to M&A.

The author's writing tone: All operating information in the market can be searched and analyzed by the software system, and the information is completely public. So Linton can talk openly in public places, on Facebook, and disclose all his operational information. The only factor that determines Linton's success or failure is his "logical framework of thinking." This is ridiculous! In the famous "GameStop" incident on Wall Street, short sellers were beaten up by retail investors. If we follow Linton's "logical framework of thinking", short sellers should have no problem. As a result, due to the exposure of short positions, the Wall Street capital hidden behind the scenes used the emotional impulses of retail investors to guide the market trend and destroy the short positions. Does Linton's logical thinking framework include the factor of "retail investor sentiment"? The founder of Greenlight Capital, the famous Einhorn, wrote a book "Cheating All the Way to the End", telling the story of his eight-year struggle with United Capital. Einhorn discovered that United Capital was cheating and he shorted the company. As a result, United Capital used all its connections and means to refuse to admit defeat. Einhorn was furious and got into a fight with United Capital. As a result, it lasted eight years! Although United Capital was eventually exposed, Einhorn won. But it took eight years and consumed too much of his energy and time. Finally, he published the book "Cheating All the Way to the End" to record the entire process. If the subsequent subprime mortgage crisis is all based on the writing tone of "operating information disclosure → waiting for logical verification → silly dog ​​betting and dog jumping → company information will be mined on time → big victory", it will be meaningless. I have read a novel before, about the United States stopping the exchange of U. S. Dollars for gold: a veteran banker, a Soviet foreign trade official, and a Jewish trader. They all judged through various methods that the United States would stop converting US dollars into gold. The veteran banker has a large number of long positions in U. S. Dollars, and he must close his position quickly without letting other market operators know about it. The Jewish traders were approached by an Arab family who had a large amount of gold in hand. Arabs have always liked to use gold as a means of trade circulation. The Arabs fought several wars with Israel in the last century and were sworn enemies. As a result, in the novel, they started a business. Arab families asked Jewish traders to help them with the U. S. Dollar foreign exchange market. The veteran banker saw the Jewish trader's transactions and was afraid that he would affect his closing of the position. Through his transactions in the Swiss Bank, he asked the Swiss police to find a crime and lock up the Jewish trader, so that he could not complete the transaction. Next, the United States stopped converting U. S. Dollars into gold, and veteran bankers made huge profits and were touted as investment superstars. The veteran banker took his wife on vacation. On the winding mountain road, I was blocked by a broken down Arab car. Behind, the banker's car falls off a cliff. If the author continues writing like this, Linton and his mother will have no other ending than "people under the Atlantic Ocean".

When the cook and the dishwasher were talking about stocks, they quickly ran away. Except novels.

This is my record. I think the author's novel still has some insights.

The beginning is amazing, with no nonsense or procrastination. Even when it reaches the killing line, there are no complaints about bitterness and hatred, just like an old man telling the story of that period of time lightly. Very good.

If you don't understand, just ask, is Lao Li the real protagonist?

I have a feeling after reading the latest chapter There are so many supporting characters that are very strange. I have saved up my family fortune for several years and then go to stock trading as soon as my brain gets hot, and I still go into it all at once? Even if a normal person wants to invest in stocks, how dare you invest all your money for eight or ten years? Don't you just take your time and put in a little bit to test the water first? Are the supporting characters not normal people just to highlight that they do the opposite of the protagonist every time?

After reading the latest chapter, this book gave me a feeling of either good or bad, somewhere between them. The details, writing style, and professional knowledge were all fine, but it felt dry. Everything was a cycle, short selling, debating with others, questioning by others, discussing with school people, expressing opinions, and making a lot of money by slapping people in the face. What I don't understand is why so many people question a person who can be right several times or more than a dozen times? Also, why do you have to explain to so many people? I wish I knew everything about the market. Don't I need to keep it secret? Can I just tell others about my strategies? Or is it to make friends with powerful people? If that's the case, it's understandable. Then when writing, emphasize that it is to pave the way for the future and make connections, and slap in the face is to win over people in the future. Otherwise, I don't understand that others don't agree with you at all, and you just explain it to me and just ignore it.

Written as a stock market diary, not a novel

Seeing now, there is no book in the novel that does not involve gambling! The first type, Linton, has always been option selling. The only difference is that Linton came from later generations and has a solid foundation and knows the historical trends. The second type is hedge funds such as Paulson Fund. But they are really the gambling gods in the world. The third type, Anna, the heir to old money. He has a unique vision, but he is also a gambler. She sold short, then put on leverage and exploded. The fourth type, the third life, is the old money among old money. Even if you are too old, you still have to take a big gamble in a crisis. The fourth type is company employees like Xie Yongnian. Turning a blind eye to the company's plight has cost him his entire fortune. The fifth type is retail investors betting on dogs. There is something I don't understand here: Are American investors so gambling? Every time you invest, it's all about your net worth! And whether you are a retail investor or an heir to old money, you are all levered! TMD is crazier than Big A investors! Only Koreans can compete!

At that time, there was a Zhuzhou smelting plant in Hunan, which produced zinc alloy. At that time, the country piloted enterprises to carry out international futures, allowing them to hedge. They tasted the sweetness of futures, thought they were smart, and turned hedging into betting and speculation. In 1997, Zhuzhou Smelter sold 450,000 tons of empty orders, but its actual output was only 300,000 tons. As a result, international futures traders swarmed in and squeezed out the smelters. Finally, he had no choice but to report it to the central government. The state mobilized zinc ingots across the country to help Zhuye liquidate its positions, but in the end it ended up with a huge loss. It shocked the country at that time, and the country tightened the rights of enterprises to trade futures. In those days, old employees of Zhuye Ye even came to the factory to find trouble with the factory leadership. What they said: After working hard for decades, they returned to before liberation overnight! If the position prices of the trading parties can be easily checked, it means that the trump card is public, can the transaction be fair at all?

To be honest, the author has changed a lot in these chapters. He no longer arranges so-called public debates, nor does he describe retail dog gambling in a colorful way. However, the pace is still too slow, many things have changed, and the tail is still left habitually. These chapters are all about the confrontation with the "National Financial Corporation". They include the counterattack of the company's CEO, the reaction of the old money of the upper class elite in the United States, and the wallflowers of the Wall Street media. It's also a wonderful chapter. However, it is still difficult to completely change the author's habits, and he still needs to mix in some leeks and follow-up comments. Do we need to know this every time? Is there any difference between their speech and behavior and that of New Century Financial Company employees and retail investors? What's the point of looking at this? Aren't they just the people at the bottom who were deceived and deceived themselves? If you want to write about their lives and disillusionment, you can actually describe it in detail later in the "Occupy Wall Street" movement. The author now wants to have a sense of participation from the Leek Gambler in every chapter, and everyone is really irritated by reading it! Many people feel overwhelmed by reading this. After all, it is not a mindless article, but it still requires some basic knowledge. But every time there are these "cookie-cutter" retail investor comments, what's the difference? If you are tired of writing, others will be tired of reading! Every operation now has a template: short selling options → company counterattack → leek gambler → media reports → leek becomes a gambler → company thunderstorm → leek gambler loses everything! We all know the results of the subprime mortgage crisis, and we also know the fate of these companies, so there is no need to make "leek remarks" every time! They are all cannon fodder! They don't do anything either! The author needs to speed up the pace! Don't waste your time on these irrelevant plot points! Enough of the prelude! Is there a big difference between New Century Financial Corporation and Nationwide Financial Corporation? They are the same thing! What really shocked Wall Street was Bear Stearns, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac... Save your energy and invest in the latter! Those who describe the subprime mortgage crisis basically write about the sudden sudden death of these giants!

If you make money by shorting, don't shout around and don't let others know. Otherwise, you will be dragged out by others to take the blame during the subprime mortgage crisis, especially the US government, who will be pulled out to take the blame for those who went bankrupt. If people like Paulson are allowed, too many people will know the protagonist, and those people will sell the pig's feet.

The writing is good, but I am a bit old, and the environment in the United States is to discuss these offline, and every time there are people around me who have opponents, I still think too much about human nature.

Several plots involve new characters meeting the protagonist. They first analyze what the protagonist did, how it happened, and then the protagonist explains why he did it. After it is released (I will eat a bite of beef first, then I will also eat a bite of beef, then I will take a sip of water), can you write it well? Isn't the word count of this kind of content not pure?

In the past few months, the new stock god, AI investment star Loop, was targeted by Castle Securities. People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong, especially leveraged open-label trading. In the eyes of institutions, this is a provocative signal that a fattened pig keeps shouting to kill me. AI and technology, which had fallen for almost two months, skyrocketed after Castle Securities took over.

The advantage is that the writing on stock trading is very professional, and it is difficult for a layman to understand it, although I don't know whether it is a real professional or a fake one. The disadvantage is that other plots are too simple and boring. The protagonist is a stock trading machine, and the private school he attends is a large stock trading club. There is basically no life content except a little "killing line" related.

Why did I become such a mouthful after entering the academy? The calm trading machine before it was put on the shelves was pretty good-looking...

The protagonist is already so famous. If he doesn't tie up some interest groups, it will be like running around naked with money. The protagonist should manage the pension or pension of energy groups such as teachers, police, or soldiers, which is equivalent to an extra layer of talisman to prevent him from running naked like now. In the past two days, the AI ​​geniuses on Wall Street have liquidated their positions, managing tens of billions of dollars, and their positions have been targeted.

Isn't it an equal partnership with others? If it's an equal partnership, then it's okay to disclose information to each other, but if you bring others to invest, then the others should give other things to the protagonist!

Currently fully subscribed, the advantage is that I have seen the rise and fall factors of different stocks in different situations and some factors that determine the rise and fall of stocks. I have indeed learned knowledge, so read it as a novel that combines stock trading knowledge. It is worth paying for the knowledge. But there are two problems when reading the novel as a whole. One is the homogeneity of routines. When trading a stock, someone goes in the opposite direction and tells this person's story and ideas. The results are released. The 10 transactions have basically remained the same. The second is the homogeneity of content. When trading a stock, you talk about your own trading ideas, tell others your own trading ideas, and even occasionally tell different people repeatedly. In this way, 1/3 to half of the content is repeated. That's about it.

The protagonist's mother was sent by the government to study abroad and stayed in the United States 🙂

Linton in the author's article still has a 100% accurate stock picker: the stocks he finds are all accurate! There are so many stocks in the United States, and there are so many geniuses in the United States, including hedge funds that use supercomputers and formulas, and they only have probability statistics.

The main battlefield of the subprime mortgage crisis has begun! Tired of those crappy plots! The fight between the big fish and the crocodiles has begun! This is so exciting! Write two more chapters!

I didn't understand the protagonist's operation, so I bought options against the trend every time. Since you know that the stock price will rise or fall temporarily, wouldn't it be a good idea to go long or short following the trend to make a profit first, and then go short or long based on your own logic near a high or low point? Eat two fish and earn money twice. Is it too much money? You started making money from just $400 in the basement. You still think you are making money too quickly, right?

Come on, I like it very much. Although I don't understand many financial terms, if it's not troublesome, I can add some vernacular explanations in the text.

By the way, if we follow Linton's logic and add probability, will the Chinese stock market fail?

Yes, the only question is, are people who play finance so stubborn?
