New York, 1994. Before smartphones and social media. Before compliance regulations. When Wall Street was still the Wild West, and fortunes could be made or lost on a handshake deal.

In the thundering trading pits of Manhattan's financial district, Australian currency trader Kingsley Walker possesses a gift that sets him apart—extraordinary auditory skills—a superpower before electronic broking. Still haunted by the tragic death of his fiancée Sammy, Kingsley leaves Sydney behind for what seems like a straightforward posting: heading up Australian Dollar trading at the prestigious National Bank of New York.

But nothing in New York is what it appears. His arrival has been carefully orchestrated by a mysterious billionaire known only as "The Whale," who soon reveals an audacious proposition that dwarfs anything Kingsley imagined: execute a series of trades massive enough to send the Australian dollar into freefall.

But in the lawless arena of 90s currency trading, enemies lurk around every corner and as billion-dollar trades hang in the balance, Kingsley begins experiencing something even his extraordinary ears can't explain—visions of his deceased fiancée, Sammy, that seem to be guiding him through the chaos.

TRADERS: The Whale's Wager is a high-octane cocktail of greed, power, and betrayal, where love echoes from beyond the grave. It's Wall Street meets Ghost in the cutthroat currency markets of New York, where fortunes turn on a whisper and the greatest power comes from listening not just to the markets, but to your heart.

A young man from Tasmania, Sebastian Swift, tries to distance himself from his traumatic childhood by excelling academically and moving to the big smoke. After he completes his master's in finance, he receives several job offers, but two stand out: one in Melbourne and one in Sydney.

Brought up with fatalistic beliefs hammered into him by his father, Sebastian stumbles into the Soho Oracle in Melbourne, seeking guidance. He is told that he will die in an accident right before his 36th birthday. He laughs it off as a performance until the exact prophecy is confirmed by a palm reader in Sydney the next day.
The coincidence appears to have merit.
As fate would have it, right before the second reading, he met the woman from his dreams—the soul mate he has been searching for his whole life. Their meeting, like a burst of sunlight through storm clouds, fills Sebastian with hope and joy. But now, Sebastian is torn. Does he tell her about the prophecies or keep them to himself? Does he pursue the relationship or cut and run to save her? Can we change our fate, or is it set in stone?

These questions haunt Sebastian as he tries to find the right path for himself and Josie. In the end, it appears that love, like energy, never truly dies—it only changes form.
