20 Things You Somehow Missed In The Wolf Of Wall Street

20. It Doesn't Show The Stock Trades Correctly 

Because this film revolves around the fallout of the Wall Street crash, you'd naturally assume Martin Scorsese triple-checked everything to ensure every single detail was accurate as possible.

But The Wolf of Wall Street doesn't accurately depict one simple thing about the stock exchange... the stock exchange itself. When we see Jordan on his first day in Wall Street, there is a screen in the background displaying stock trades in dollars and cents. These numbers are shown in decimals so they appear as 3.50 or 1.20. But during the this time period, these stocks were displayed in fractions so they looked like 2 1/2 or 9 2/3.

Because Scorsese is such a stickler for detail, it's possible he intentionally depicted the stock trades like this so it's slightly easier for viewers to understand them.
