About the book

Pit Bull

Nine years of losing as an analyst, one disciplined plan, and millions made in the pits: Wall Street’s champion trader tells all.


Welcome to the world of Martin "Buzzy" Schwartz, Champion Trader--the man whose nerves of steel and killer instinct in the canyons of Wall Street earned him the well-deserved name "Pit Bull."


Schwartz recounts his rise from a frustrated Wall Street analyst to an independent floor trader on the American Stock Exchange, armed with a hard-won grubstake. The floor pitted him against seasoned specialists, forcing him to trade on strict moving averages and nightly chart work.


The memoir follows his shift to Chicago’s volatile futures pits, capturing the brutal lessons of rogue brokers, market panics, and the discipline needed to master ego before pulling the trigger.


This is the true story of how Schwartz became the best of the best, of the people and places he discovered along the way and of the trader’s tricks and techniques he used to make his millions.


  • Market Analysis: Schwartz breaks down how he adapted Terry Laundry’s Magic T Theory and ten-day exponential moving averages to identify cyclical shifts, leveraging after-hours Treasury bond movements on his Telerate machine to anticipate next-day momentum.

  • Day Trading: From executing Mesa Petroleum options beside specialist Louis “Chickie” Miceli to battling the Chicago pits, Schwartz reveals the tactical mechanics, scale trading, and speed required to scalp small gains under fire.

  • Risk Management: Inside the 1987 market collapse, where strictly honoring predetermined stop losses and hard exit rules preserved his capital while panic and margin calls crushed major investment funds.

  • Money Management: A candid account of running seventy million dollars across the Sabrina funds, detailing the intense strain of client scrutiny and the necessity of separating personal ego from every position.
