Episode 16 Trader’s Journey : EP.16. – Andy Krieger

Relive Black Monday 1987, when the Dow plunged over 22% in a single day. Amidst the chaos, legendary trader Andy Krieger remained calm and saw an opportunity: the famous “Kiwi Trade”.

Krieger, a legend among currency strategists, spotted a fatal flaw in the New Zealand Dollar (NZD)—it was acting “too strong” despite stressed global and domestic fundamentals.

We break down his strategy: how to see imbalance where others see safety. Krieger built a massive, yet risk-controlled short position using options, making Bankers Trust a $300 million profit.

His legacy teaches traders that the most powerful edge is clarity over emotion and trusting macroeconomic logic when the crowd is panicking. Discover the principles of discipline and structure that turned the Kiwi Trade into one of the most famous currency bets ever.
