Chris Parker has heard tales of vast fortunes being made in the Chicago commodities business. The near seven-foot-tall Alabaman has a freakish ability to make fast numerical calculations, helping him get promoted to floor broker at the Chicago Commodities Exchange (CCE).
A Wild West atmosphere reigns on the CCE trading floor; rail-thin Chris gets bludgeoned. He complicates things by becoming enthralled with a tiny female trader. He begins trading with her over the heads of hundreds of traders across the gigantic U.S. Treasury-Index Pit, leading his Pit neighbors to become violent over all the juice getting away.
Chris unexpectedly learns of a ghastly plot by the CCE to give a large bribe to a powerful U.S. Congressman. Then he finds out why and it all makes sense. When Chris takes action, he begins to fear elements of the old Chicago are readying to doom him.
