The Trading Game

 The Trading Game: A Confession by Gary Stevenson is a memoir by a former Citibank trader who became the bank’s most profitable trader during the financial crisis. Stevenson reveals the high-pressure, cutthroat world of investment banking, showing how the pursuit of profit often clashes with ethics and personal well-being.

It’s part confession, part exposé — detailing his rapid rise, the toxic culture of trading floors, the personal cost of chasing wealth, and why he ultimately walked away from millions.
