About the Author :
LEWIS J. BORSELLINO is the top S&P futures trader in the United States, with a career that has spanned nearly twenty years. His long-term success puts him into the trading pantheon that features such luminaries as Paul Tudor Jones, Victor Niederhoffer, and bond trader Tom Baldwin. Borsellino is a frequent guest commentator on CNN-FN and CNBC, where he is regarded as the "biggest and best trader" in S&Ps. He is also the founder of www.TeachTrade.com, a Web site that provides education and dynamic market commentary for traders. PATRICIA CRISAFULLI COMMINS is a freelance business writer and former correspondent for Reuters America Inc. She has also written for the Christian Science Monitor and the Wall Street Journal.

Review :
"A legendary S&P floor trader has written a powerful, brutally honest chronicle of his determined rise to the top of his profession. Touching and insightful, this riveting account is one of the best trading memoirs ever." -Nelson Freeburg, Publisher, Formula Research "The Day Trader provides a rare look into the events that shaped the extraordinary character of one of the most unique people to ever put on a trading jacket. Most compelling are the glimpses into Borsellino's Italian-American upbringing. It comes as no surprise that Borsellino places himself at the center of the maelstrom surrounding electronic trading versus open outcry and provides a truly balanced, intelligent, and unemotional view of the momentous transformation occurring in the financial markets. It is imperative that anyone involved in trading the markets - either traditionally or electronically - read this story and benefit from the insights of one of the great traders of our lifetime."-Mario Alberico, Former Senior Vice President, Electronic Trading, Chicago Mercantile Exchange "The Day Trader is must reading for anyone in the market. Lewis Borsellino is an Italian American hero who climbed the mountain with guts and honor." -Dominic Di Frisco, President Emeritus, Joint Civic Committee of Italian-Americans "...the most honest road map to a succesful trading career ever written....generously salted with genuine insight into the workings of the market."-Worth Magazine
