For those who want to read trading pit stories, I can make no better recommendation than to read The New Gatsbys: Fortunes and Misfortunes of Commodity Traders by Bob Tamarkin which was published in the early 1980s and can be found on the internet for under $5. It's a perfect mix of historical and contemporary (atleast when it was published) stories from commodities trading and truly shows the fortunes or misfortunes that participants have faced.
