Billion Dollar Day


This is an excellent little gem of a documentary made back in the 1980's on the foreign exchange traders and dealers of the global banks. The BBC documentary looks at a typical day in the lives of three traders in New York, London, and Hong Kong, while the technology and fashion may have changed, the business of foreign exchange trading is still characterized by large volumes, big and fast potential profits and losses, and ample stress and excitement. This is a must watch for anyone interested in the foreign exchange market and currency trading.
