good recommendations, and at the moment I know a movie that a trader should watch.

[Herry Toms]

Wow, that is a pretty nice list of movies based on trading. I watched all these movies but My most favorite one is "The Wolf of the wall street" I just love this movie, it's amazing.

The only movie I watched was " The Hacker " then the second was I don't know what the title is but its all about trading were trader has been
involved in a syndicate. It was a Korean movie something like that. But at the above title I don't have any idea about the movies you
mentioned.

Never ever in my life on seeing some trading movies.I do see gambling ones but not trade ones.
Thanks up for the list and i might consider on watching or took a peek with these line ups.
I'll go back to this thread and put my insights.

[exstasie]

Boiler Room (story about a pink sheet brokering scam) and Margin Call (Wall street firm on the brink of disaster in 2008) are old favorites of mine.

If you're interested in documentaries, Trader is an interesting one. It follows futures trader Paul Tudor Jones in the run-up to the 1987 crash and shows him at his best and worst.

The Wolf of Wall Street
Margin Call

So far these are the trading movies that i had watched.You can really tangle yourself on what you are watching if you are a trader or investor.

[Sharon121212]

What class would you put trading movie. Action, comedy, romance or what?  I would actually not be interested though because movies are fiction and not reality so the trading strategies there might not be so helpful in the real world

[el kaka22]

Boiler room is not a good example of a trading movie . I mean it surely has trading in it but it shows the dark side of the trading world where people basically steal others money. Hell most of those include bad examples, not for bad trading movie example but for bad stealing type of example, trading places has Eddie Murphy learning what the crop reports will be beforehand and making someone else bankrupt, wall street has insider trading that goes to jail, the big short has people who are seeing the reality but others basically screwing people with house mortgages.

There are tons of movies that shows the bad side of trading, margin call is another one of them, people realizing their paper worth nothing and then selling it because otherwise they would be holding bad papers, you can add that to your list.

[TGA24]

I agree el kaka22 - most of the movies paint a bad picture of trading.

Even Wolf of Wall street, I mean it looks interesting and all.. but at the end of the day he robbed a bunch of people and went to jail for it. What you mentioned from the Big Short is also true, but I still felt like I learned a bit from it. Like how the main character found out the housing industry was going down because there was fraud happening. It was like a forward signal. It was easy to see but nobody was looking.

But anyway, they are all for entertainment, I certainly enjoy watching them.

Another one I forgot to mention, not a movie but a show - Billions. I think it is quite good. Early in the first season it has more to do with trading and as it goes on it lessens.

Out of the whole list, if you're looking for one that you can actually learn from it is Trader, the story about Paul Tudor Jones.

[hugeblack]

Instead of watching movies about trading, you can learn a lot by reading a book or listening to it.
Many films are based on a certain idea which is not necessarily correct.
this is my list:

 - Margin Call 2011
 - Wall Street 1987

For Bitcoin:

 - Crypto 2019
 - Trust Machine: The Story of Blockchain

I saw The Wolf of Wall Street  and Boiler Room. I don't know about other movies you listed but i don't think that those movies gives you any good point about trade. Yes you can earn some courage, may be you can inspire which is great though. You can try also this one if you want Crypto.

Money Monster. It gives me the realization that we can't always rely on someones signal. In this film George Clooney plays as a walls street expert who gives out tips live on TV on which stock will gain and which will not however there is one who took it seriously and lost a lot of money and took him (George Clooney) as a hostage.

Pretty nice sharing mate about movies you watch I'll it to search in the google that very interesting.

I have never watched a movie about trade, but I have received a film recommendation about bitcoin.
good recommendations, and at the moment I know a movie that a trader should watch.

Can yoou please share  it what is that movie, I am not a movie ethusiasm but if all abput knowledge for crypto trading I will watch for the seek how to get skills.

[TGA24]

I'm also interested in that movie on Bitcoin. So far I have not come across any as of yet. Or an crypto's in general

[Shasha80]

I am also very happy to watch movies, almost all films with the theme of trading I always watch. But there are only a few that
made an impression, one of the wolf of wall street played by Leonardo Dicaprio exciting stories about scammers in the trading
world. And next the pursuit of happyness, played by Will Smith, tells of a medical device salesman who finally knows the world
trading led to success. Trading themed films always inspire me, by watching the film me too so motivated watching. Hopefully in
the future there will be more films with trading themes.

Thank you for the reference! Although I have never watched a movie like the one mentioned above, but I often find films related to "Bitcoin" One of them is the Korean drama movie "Voice 3", in one of the episodes there was a case where a Bitcoin trader killed himself because of the big dump like what happened in 2017 ago.

[Wexnident]

I've watched wall street. It was pretty interesting albeit pretty old though so I kinda skipped over some bits and pieces here and there. I've also watched Margin Call, I don't know if you've heard of it, but its main theme is financial crisis and was really good. There was a scene there with the janitor which was quite amusing to watch, I wouldn't disclose the details but that scene gave me a good laugh. Most other movies I've watched are related to coding and hacking sadly enough.

Thats a great list and have personally watched more than half of those, my favourite being the big short. However, if you'll indulge me I'd like to add one more, not a movie, but a very provocative and interesting series about trading called, BILLIONS. It stars Paul Giamatti and Damian Lewis!

I love how trading movies inspire to trade your trading game to the next level!

[ChrisPop]

Wolf of Wall Street is my classic favorite, but the series with Gordon Gekko are very useful to get some tangence with the sharp blades of the wall street professionals. Just seeing this thread I need to remind myself to watch some more trading movies or documentaries. I don't really have a desire to get on the Wall Street as I prefer a more calm and peaceful life, but it's fun for me to watch all the chase of the money.
