Tonight I felt like re-watching some movies about trading and finance that made me think a lot. If you're interested in the investment world, you should watch Billions and The Wolf of Wall Street – they really give you a different perspective on how everything works. Then there's The Big Short, which is brilliant; it explains the 2008 crisis in a way that even those outside the industry can understand.



I have a list I keep recommending to anyone who wants to understand better: Industry, Wall Street Warriors, Inside Job, Margin Call, Rogue Trader, Too Big to Fail. These are all movies and documentaries that touch on different aspects of finance, from high-risk ventures to the psychology behind major decisions. Trading Places is more vintage but still effective, and if you want real documentaries, try The Ascent of Money, Smartest Guys in the Room, Floored.

There are also Betting on Zero, Dirty Money, Black Monday, Money for Nothing, which give you a critical perspective. The China Hustle is interesting to understand how certain market dynamics work. Honestly, watching movies about trading and investments like these helps you grasp the ethics and psychology behind financial decisions – it’s not just numbers and charts, there’s a human story behind every boom and bust.

Which one do I recommend starting with? It depends if you prefer drama or pure documentary. BTC, ETH, SOL – the crypto market has a similar story, right?
BTC-2.52%
ETH-3.22%
SOL-3.16%
