    "Wall Street: The Other Las Vegas" by Nicolas Darvas. This book describes how Wall Street works. It also describes how Darvas traded.

    Darvas was an independent trader who made $2,000,000 in about six years.

    The book does not "sugar coat" investing or trading, like many other books do.

    Most of the books you see won’t really tell you how the stock market works, but ugly americans, wolf of wall street, the black swan, foooled by randomness will help you understand how the market works and how big business uses the market. While these aren’t that helpful on how to invest, they will tell you what happens in the market. There are reviews of a few at novelwagon.com. Best of luck
