In this video, I go over the parallels between trading and gambling. I start by explaining how many of the top traders on wall street got their start as professional gamblers, and go into the origin story of legendary trader Blair Hull. Then I go over many of the concepts that were fleshed out in the gambling world, and were later adapted by Wall Street to produce winning traders.
