review 1: I lean towards stories that can seamlessly mix the following on the same page: "He’s anxious to begin constructing models around this information— Brownian motion, Black Scholes option pricing, Gaussian copulas— and indeed at least one compartment of his brain is already teasing out variables and hypotheses...His heart rate is raging. The next song is the Misfits’ “Mommy Can I Go Out and Kill Tonight?”Moreover I appreciated the author's breadth of knowledge spread throughout a story that spanned the globe from Hong Kong to Arabia and Australia.
review 2: The action switches from New York City, to Hong Kong, to Johannesburg, and to Berlin. You get to know each of the different brokers who place the trades, as well as the officials who notice that st... morerange trades are being made. Can't wait to find out what will happen to each person, and who is behind this plot!If you like numbers, computers, stocks, and mysteries; you'll like this book which includes them all! less
