之前看的时候，只是好奇，Wall Street 上的生活是怎么样的啊。
中间毕业工作，就间断了。
今天才看完最后的几集，却觉得心态全然不同。
开始觉得：
那样的生活不累吗。
不知道这样的感觉是释然还是消极。
讲述Wall Street的故事，我们或许会期待两种方式，
一种是成功学一般地，描述某个投行的强大与IBer的高收入，不可一世地彰显投行是金字塔尖的工作。
一种是嗤之以鼻地，怀揣梦想进入投行，发现周遭都是衣冠禽兽，于是愤然离去，追随内心的追求。
Rookie仿佛完全不是WS人的性格，可是也跌跌撞撞，满心欣喜地开始了自己的Currency analyst的工作。
Brett是典型地自我感觉超良好的投行男，永不会满足，一定要和权贵相处。但是结尾自己说: born into a small Canadian town, dad is high school teacher. This is just American dream.又让你觉得值得敬佩。
我喜欢Wall Street Warriors这样淡定的纪录片，很中立很平静地描述着几种在Wall Str上的生活，让你觉得: 那不过是一种工作，众多生活方式中的一种。
Larry: Floor trader, HF manager,
FCOJ: frozen concentrated organge juice trader
producers of the actual commodity come here to the NY board to trade, to sell the protols before they actually come out of the ground. We are trading the future, nobody knows what's gonna happen in the future.But commodities exist to give price protection today.
Call Spread-buy one call, sell another call at a higher price.
The broker on the floor will ask for a market. All the market makers will scream out they bids,How much they are willing to buy the contracts for. And they will scream out the offers-what they are willing to sell for. And the broker will take the highest the bid and the lowest offer.

Lance: Stock broker, concentrate on 5-6 idea a year, building one prominent position, in-depth research the company, once we feel we should invest in it. We have as many as people in. If the recommendation went wrong. We gonna have trouble.

The CEOs will not buy from the rookies. So the rookies have to sound like VPs.

New traders always think trading intellectually challenging exercise, try to be brilliant, The reality is it is not about some new trading technich. It's about fundamental.
"These are very competitive people.You have to compete against these people.The great thing about this job is that , this is a meritocracy"
We are traders, not quant, not someone predicting what's gonna happen in 8 months.
Rejected the Paris offer, went back to NY, worked in FXCM.
Currency trader: more of a trader than an analyst.
It is OK to have many small losses, but seize the opportunity to make big wins.
