Tim Sykes of timothysykes.com, was kind enough to send me a copy of his book, “An American Hedge Fund
“, for a pre-read before it’s release. Unique in the financial world, it’s a chance to take a peek at how an ambitious trader went from reading stock message boards on aol, to running his own hedge fund in his early 20’s.
Tim shares his experience with fear and greed throughout the book.
He shows the difficulty of raising capital, and juggling trading at the same time.
In the end, Tim reflects on “Lessons Learned”.
Reading “An American Hedge Fund“, was enjoyable and eye opening. Tim’s transparency, and personal viewpoint of the hedge fund industry, make this book a recommended read for anyone interested in the world of trading and hedge funds.
