It's the roaring 1920s, World War 1 has ended and the American economy is rapidly growing, but while everyone else is partying, one mysterious stock trader has locked himself inside his office for weeks on end, secretly preparing for the event that would send America into its darkest times in history and which, on October 29th 1929, would forever change the global economy in ways no one could have imagined.

As a boy this trader ran away from the family farm to become rich and save his parents from poverty, and although people laughed at him at the time, he was determined to become the best trader in history.
