I've been in the aviation industry since I was still a senior in HS (1979) and I don't don't recall ever hearing of "ADM".
Situational awareness and CRM (Crew resource management) yes but not ADM.
That doesn't mean it doesn't exist, I just never heard of it.
If pilots, and I'm talking primarily professional ones here, have any "edge" I'm thinking it would be the pragmatism to objectively face and size up reality, sometimes in a hurry. As well as being able to make a disciplined "trained" response during potentially stressful situations. Or in other words to do what your trained to do without thinking, assuming there's little or no time to.
We sometimes "brag" (for lack of a better word) that we're paid to make split second multi million dollar life and death decisions, and sometimes we do. But much of what we do is actually just a trained response. An engine failure during takeoff for example.
With some exceptions, if it's prior to V1 you abort. After V1 you continue.
You don't stop to think about it, if you did it could be too late. The analogy to trading, I would think, would be following your plan even in the heat of the moment or when the market is rapidly moving against your position.
Outside of this I don't see much advantage to being a pilot personally.
