Books like Way of the Turtle by Curtis Faith


Way of the Turtle tells the complete story of the famous Turtle Trading experiment, begun by trading legend Richard Dennis and his partner William Eckhardt. The book explains how the pair recruited and trained 23 ordinary individuals—most with no prior trading experience—in just two weeks, turning them into highly successful traders. Curtis Faith, a former Turtle and top‑earner, details the selection process, the trading strategies that produced average annual returns of over 80 % and more than $100 million in profits, and why individual results varied. Readers learn the core principles behind the Turtle system, how to adapt those rules to any market, and how the approach remains effective in today’s financial landscape while offering guidance on risk diversification and personal growth.
