Trading Articles - Willis Trading Group

I was looking over the website of the formerly independent Willis Trading Group, Inc. (now leading the commodities group at Mesirow Financial) and found great links back to articles from the previous boom in commodities 30 years ago. It is amazing to look back at these articles and read the thoughts of how some of the best traders in managed futures approached the business. Although the business has evolved, some of these documents like "The Big Hitters" are fascinating reads beacuse they are truly lessons in where the business of trading has come from.

The articles span several decades which is also fantastic. When read together, they provide a tremendous insight into something that particularly interests me... the move to electronic trading, and a global market perspective. The global market perspective is something that is a very recent development, in the sense that traders are truly global in execution and mindset. These articles provide a strong sense of how the great traders have followed the market and the business to a more sophisticated global agenda.

Any person serious about futures, trading, or business should take a look and spend some time reading these articles.
