Books by Jim Paul

Jim Paul was a trader and former governor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange who built a successful commodities career before a single catastrophic loss wiped out his gains and more. After rebuilding, he spent years studying the psychology of losing in financial markets and co-authored this book with financial writer Brendan Moynihan. The book, originally published in 1994, was reissued by Columbia University Press in 2013 with a foreword by Jack Schwager, author of the Market Wizards series. Paul passed away in 2009; the reissue has introduced the book to a new generation of traders.
