The Complete Arbitrage Deskbook
I'm trying to gain a little more insight into a few things related to inefficiencies in the markets and how they are exploited. Has anyone read this book: The Complete Arbitrage Deskbook by Stephane Reverre ?Can anyone please tell me the goods, bads, how quantitative and whether its too theoretical or realistic?Thanks in advance.
The Complete Arbitrage Deskbook
is a deskbook larger than a handbook ?
The Complete Arbitrage Deskbook
It's a while ago since I looked at this book.. but what I remember is that it is OK but not too specialIt will not tell you much about inefficiencies in markets but describes different markets more in detail.For example, which things you should consider when trading equities, like settlement, dividend tax, cost of short selling ect.If you have a good knowledge about these issues this book will not teach you much. But, if you are considering entering markets you currently have not much experience in, you might get some hints in which mistakes to prevent.
