Hello, my friends. Just want to ask you about good movies related to the trading, Forex, Stocks, Futures or Options, any kind of trading.

I haven't seen any good movie about trading, unfortunately.

Oh, one second, I remember one, but it is not about trading, but the main hero is Pro Trader From London. It's called Good Year.
The movie is very interesting btw.

The fiction over at Forex Factory's "Interactive Trading" forum makes good comedy.

Wall Street is a must!
Rogue Trader also pretty good.
Boiler Room.

If you trade on your own long enough, you'll eventually relate to Pi.
A newer film just out is limitless.

A few others are out there, but those are some of my favorite fiction related trading films.

i don't know any good movie about trading, but maybe "Reminiscences of a Stock Operator" will be good if become a movie..any hollywood producer here??

btw i imagine there is a movie like this, there is someone that learn stock/forex since he was a kid...,he is poor, but so genius...
he keep learning and leaning....and than he start trading....growing an growing....
amazing. he win..and keep wining in each trade that he take,...
in his young age he already being a successful trader...his life is so glamors...live move from hotel to hotel,,,from country to country...
when trading, he could be very serious, he could in and out market so quick...rob money from several broker till they bankrupt,
all broker afraid with him...,he is the king of trader !!! (don't forget to put a sound effect on this one )
cos he is so success now he is become a 'mafia' target murderer, they don't like him cos he screw up the market..till finally... he has a plan to shake the world economic ... (sound effect please.... )




hehehe...if i'm a broker i will make a movie like that..,that's a good marketing to attract young ages in 'trader wanna be '

java (always be a drama queen )

FAST BUCKS: How Porsche Made Billions

Over two astonishing days in October 2008 one of the most amazing stories of the downturn emerged. Porsche, the luxury sports car manufacturer, was revealed as the force behind an audacious takeover bid for Volkswagen.

The price of Volkswagen shares rocketed fivefold, and it briefly became the most valuable company on the planet. And hedge funds that had been betting on VW shares falling in the downturn found themselves staring at losses that ran into billions of pounds.

Now the German authorities are investigating. It has been alleged that the much smaller German car maker Porsche manipulated the market, made a fortune and ended up potentially taking over its rival.

Porsche insists it has done nothing wrong. But for years it has quietly stalked its larger rival, buying up VW shares in a creeping takeover and making vast profits in dealings on those shares. It has been highly effective, last year it made four times as much money from share trading than from making its iconic sports cars.

The Money Programme's Max Flint travels to Germany to investigate how Porsche became so expert in playing the market and how it could end up with the biggest prize of all: control of its rival.

There are many good movies about trading, but last one I like was Wall Street - money never sleeps.

P.s Anybody knows how Wall Street become the "main trading street in the world"? I mean, there are many others streets where exchanges located, by I know and heard only about Wall Street.
