WhereTheFoxHat posted this in a recent thread. I watched it. Found it interesting. Mostly the guy talking about psychology. It's a fundamentally important thing to trading well imo...

The financial brain of the London City. - Docu 2013

Watching that lead me to this.
The winner effect.

I suspect the winning effect guy (Ian robertson) is probably more well known than I realise, but I think it's helpful to know about when you are struggling, or ... not struggling... if you're struggling, probably good to take on a tomato can... :)

There's a documentary on BBC4 tonight about the Palio, definitely worth a watch

The Social Dilema (Netflix)

"The only two industries that call their customers users is Drugs & Social Media" not the exact quote but close enough.

watched that over the weekend James, quite pleasantly surprised that it was actually the missus that wanted to watch it.. she has gone up a notch in my estimation

watched documentary on Paul Gascoinge last night, total genius of a footballer, didn’t know he lost a couple of close friends, one at quite an early age, would have loved for him to play for United, and to think I think he would’ve done had his sister not wanted a frigging sunbed

For some reason I haven't yet watched the Gascoigne documentary, even though I'm sure I've thought about watching it. Maybe one for tonight :D

Looking forward to seeing it. Looks like Rudy Giuliani doesn't come out of looking good according to this

Did you ever see Who is America? That was brilliant, some really insane stuff in that as well.

I'm not saying Giuliani is or isn't lying but its interesting that the producers gave him the wiggle room (no pun intended) to be able to deny it.

Why didn't they leave it for another few seconds to see what he was going to do next? Might have caught him literally with his pants down!

Came across 'Moneyball' the other night, my attention spiked when Jonah Hill's character started touting his method for using stats to find under valued players rather than relying on old school scouts.

Thought I'd share in case others would enjoy as much as I did.
