1990: Pierre, Raphael and Jules are golden boys. When Pierre loses everything, he commits suicide and lets his wife, Alex, inherit his 20 millions francs debt. In order to pay back all that money, Alex stars to work at La Bourse. But she will soon discover that this job isn't so easy...
This TV series, made of 8 episodes, is brilliant: the actors are good without being stereotypes. It gives a good view of the traders world, in the nineties, when everything in finance wasn't on computers and great opportunities of earning easy money were possible...
You will also listen to that nineties music (terence Trent d'arby, tears for fears...) that will remind you this period. The last episode will make you catch your breath. Let's hope for a sequel!
The name of the series comes from the word "scalp" that means stealing an order from another trader. It is what Pierre does just before loosing everything and committing suicide.
