Hope everyone had a great Christmas.

I got this book which I think is an excellent read called "Inside the House of Money" by Steven Drobny. It is a collection of interviews with today's leading hedge fund traders, fund managers and others in key positions.

It is a good read and gives good insight on how hedge funds trade.

I always try to get a book from the Library first.... many libraries can connect you to holdings all over the country if you ask.

It is not a book that describes specific detailed trading plans. Rather it is a compilation of interviews (similiar to Market Wizards series) with today's top hedge fund traders, fund managers etc that covers how they trade, what type of general strategy they use, how they use risk and other issues. There is one chapter that specifically covers FX.

From reading the book I could not find any interviews where these traders were day traders. Most appeared to take a view that was from days to years.

In my opinion it was a good read especially for those who are interested in the world of hedge funds and how they operate.
