Long Description

Stepping on to the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange for the first time was a terrifying experience for Cari Lynn; it was a minefield of flailing arms, rampant sexism and knife-edge deals and the stress levels meant it could blow up at any moment. As an Exchange clerk Lynn learned the pitfalls and triumphs of the markets up close, gaining an insight into the larger than life personalities of her trader colleagues and what it’s like to be the lone female in a testosterone fuelled trading pit.

Leg The Spread celebrates the hard-hitting, resourceful women who are making it big in business – outwitting and out-earning their male counterparts regardless of the glass ceiling. From Alaina, who bares her midriff and records her trades with a pink pom pom pen, but is known to throw a punch to get the trade she wants, to Bev, who hustles billions of dollars in contracts everyday with a sway over the market so great that major players like Goldman Sachs refuse to trade if she’s not in the pit, we meet gutsy female traders who embrace the adrenaline rush of fast paced money making while proving themselves daily in the midst of the ultimate boy’s club.
