About Linda Bradford Raschke
Linda Bradford Raschke began her professional trading career in 1981 making markets in options as a member of two exchanges. She became a registered CTA (Commodity Trading Advisor) in 1992. Since then, she has been the principal trader for several funds. In 2002 she started her own hedge fund, for which she was the CPO (Commodity Pool Operator). Linda’s hedge fund was ranked 17th out of 4500 for best 5-year performance by BarclaysHedge; her early successes were recognized by Jack Schwager in his renowned Market Wizards series. Linda retired as a CPO and CTA in 2015.
However, she continues to trade daily for her own account using the same program that she has traded since 1992. In the world of professional trading and money management, Linda Raschke stands out from the crowd for three factors (all of which should be priorities for any serious trader): Performance, Longevity and Consistency.
’Trading Sardines’ – Linda’s newly published trading memoir – a 21st-century version of Reminiscences of a Stock Operator!
Trading Sardines celebrates grit and resilience in the financial markets. It is a hilarious, honest, and poignant account of the evolution of a professional trader over nearly four decades. From the raucous trading floors of the early eighties to the days of giant server racks thirty years later, the reader takes a chronological trip through the markets, trading strategies, and unimaginable events, watching how one woman responds with unblinking honesty. Linda Raschke shares a lifetime of market lessons while highlighting the tension between luck, risk, and passion.
Along the way, she shows that perseverance can overcome the most inconceivable challenges, both in life and in trading. Her stories, documented with charts and photos, will keep you captivated and prove that humor may just be the key ingredient for survival. You won’t hear these types of tales anywhere else–this is the REAL world of trading. This book will motivate every trader, no matter the level of proficiency and experience. Linda’s success is testimony that you don’t have to be perfect, you just have to stay in the game.
