Praise for Hedge Fund Masters
"As Ari Kiev notes in his latest, excellent book of trading insight, no two traders respond the same way to the same event, and that those who have survived in the business already have discipline and methodology. So what value comes from a book like this? Just as the world's finest sportsmen employ coaches, so should the world's finest trading professionals. On every page, one can find a quotation or a question that encourages one to reappraise and develop one's skill set."
— Ian Burns, Managing Director, Citigroup EVR Trading Group
"Ari Kiev's work goes right to the essential core of what influences investment and trading decisions. Few books address the real issues that confront people in such an intense environment. This one does so in a very powerful way and should provoke many practical thoughts and actions from those who reflect on its underlying messages."
— Quintin Price, CIO, Gartmore Global Investments
"Ari Kiev continues his exploration of the psychological underpinnings of trading success that he began eight years ago with trading to Win. Packed full of trenchant dialogues, this book explores themes of courage, tenacity, the variant perception, cognitive dissonance, and other elements of mastery. A must-read for anyone seeking to raise his trading game to another level."
— Jay G. Goldman, Hedge Fund Manager
