I've had the pleasure of reading the work before it reached publication and enjoyed it a great deal. Check it out here

Summary below: 

"The Stock Market Philosopher: Insights of a Soviet-Born, New York-Bred Hedge Fund Trader is an entertaining examination of a successful Wall Street trader s thoughts on the stock market, starting with his early attraction to risk-taking endeavors. It's a thoughtful book on trading strategy masquerading as a memoir. Favel draws the reader in with tales of his early years in Soviet Ukraine, followed by his high school and college years in New York. Favel s interest in market strategy was piqued as a youth playing fantiki, a Russian children s game involving Bazooka Joe gum wrappers. His family emigrated to the United States while he was still in grade school and he continued his quest for quick riches through his college career. Favel s youthful exploits eventually paid off, as he began his Wall Street career and began mastering the art of trading. Explore the author s evolving out-of-the-box trading philosophy and strategies, including his thoughts on fundamental vs. technical analysis, modern portfolio theory and the random walk school of analysis."
