Girl Power: Market Mavens of the Female Persuasion
This is a man’s world.
At least, that is what the largely male-driven world of finance would have you think. But let’s not forget what the late, great James Brown concluded in his famous anthem: But it would be nothing without a woman or a girl.
So, to celebrate International Women’s Day, join us as we take a look at the most successful women traders who have used their trading acumen (and a little bit of girl power)? to rule the markets.

Exhibiting a unique ability to recognize and act on trading patterns, she has become a renowned market expert who has lectured on behalf of prestigious finance platforms such as Bloomberg and coached aspiring professional traders in over 20 countries around the world.
One of Linda Bradford Raschke’s most famous trading rules is to develop a strategy that allows you to react to market movements as they occur, based on the idea that you cannot foretell future movements: “In the world of money, which is a world shaped by human behavior, nobody has the foggiest notion of what will happen in the future. Mark that word – Nobody!”
In addition to her long and successful career in trading and coaching, Linda has also written and co-authored several books about trading. Most notably, “Trading Sardines and Street Smarts: High Probability Trading Strategies for the Futures and Equities Markets,” which she co-wrote with the CEO and chairman of TradingMarkets, Laurence A. Connors.
With a career dating back to 1981, Linda’s name has become synonymous with the industry, even lending her initials to LBR Group Inc., a registered Commodity Trade Advisor as well as LBR Management, a Commodity Pool Operator, where she also serves as president.
This article has only scratched the surface when it comes to successful female traders. Women like Jennifer Fan, Lucy Baldwin, Lauren Simmons, Nelisiwe Masango, and many more have earned their place among the pantheon of traders through successful trading careers and deserve to be celebrated as Market Mavens.
