    unpaid assistant

    I took the damn test. lotsa guessing. had no idea what they were looking for much of the time. Got a score of 124 but think I would have done much better if I were younger. I'm 84. I did rush through much of it since they said it was time sensitive. How the hell does this relate to trading? Or...

    Suppose you know you are an idiot, what profession should you choose?

    Einstein is credited with the statement but may I be so bold as to say he was incorrect. It is actually the dafination of stupidity as in liberal. My vote is for the fine profession of psychiatry.

    What is a trader's job?

    Lescor I like your description. Consider that you are an employee.I know traders are not employees. You have been hired to make him money. Why else would he hire you? He's not a good boss (but he is the boss). He doesn't give you specific directions except to direct you to trade stocks...

    Is trading Gambling or not .."What say You" Vote here.

    I identify gambling as taking a position that has an uncertain future. I believe that all trading along with most things you do is gambling. Gambling seems to be an undesirable activity. How can that be when we do it all the time? When you stop gambling you stop living.

    Trader Psychological Test: The Left Brain vs Right Brain

    I took the test. I looked at their explanations of the answers.They didn't match my decision process in many answers. I did mark a few errors upon retrospect. In any event their analysis does not jibe with my own self analysis. One is wrong. I'm inclined the think they are. I believe men and...
