BBC's Three-Part Documentary 'Million Dollar Traders' (2009)


In this three-part documentary "Million Dollar Traders", hedge fund manager Lex van Dam lets twelve people, who haven't had any experience of trading, to trade for 2 months with $1 million of his own money. Working alongside Lex, the group is supervised by former City trader Anton Kreil. The work is based on successful investor Richard Dennis' Turtle experiment from '83 and '84, who thought that trading could be taught. When the experiment ended five years later, the group of people he'd trained had earned a profit of a staggering $175 million.
