This is a realistic view of what it was like to trade on the floor. It is a gut wrenching experience at times. The adrenaline rush that you get while trading is like no other. Even athletes don't experience the same rush, because that's about wining and losing. This is about being right and making CASH. For every winner, there is a loser.
The action in the pit is depicted pretty well. A cacophony of noise. It is the sound of money being made, and lost. The best part of trading was being busy, the worst, waiting to be busy. That is where the real inside pit action took place. Cutting remarks, tricks, hijinks and other stuff. Never a dull moment. You could not be a trader and have an ego.
