Psychopath "Tells"

This has nothing to do with trading, sorry, trading is essentially boring.. trading doesn't require much discussion, not the way I do it.. Why do people that are trading relatively tiny accounts want to know anything about the economy, fundamentals, etc.. It's superfluous to what I do.. I hope I never get to the point where I have to think about things that Warren Buffett has to know.. forget that, I'm getting a headache thinking about it... I'll work on my list of Psychopath tells elsewhere, life is a big Montessori School to me, current area of study is tells for MBTI and the Psychopaths crept into the landscape.. and I just bubble over.. Bubbled right over on the hallowed halls of ET. What a bumpkin I must be... I'll chastize myself at some point, I promise...

Quote from maxpi:

I'm watching two of them that I do know a bit about. One played the "victim card" right off and turned it into an attempted small con where I showed her around town and paid for things... I watched her real closely as I told her that if she couldn't pay for stuff she had to put it back on the shelf, then we split a sweet bread and I observed that she was VERY concerned about getting her half.. so self centeredness shows itself pretty muchly up front... I met her sister and it turns out that her "victim card story" is entirely fabricated...

Is this what you do in your spare time? Toy with the local psychopath?

Quote from maxpi:

Chaotic Lifestyle, that's what I'm talking about... but you have to know them a little to know that about them... unpaid bills, living off of other people, etc.. you have to know them a little bit to know that about them.. I wonder if there aren't just mannerisms.. the wide-eyed stare is for sure a Tell afaik.. I'm watching two of them that I do know a bit about. One played the "victim card" right off and turned it into an attempted small con where I showed her around town and paid for things...

So Autism is not the correct way to look at them.. I could change that to "undeveloped"..

If they are Narcissistic they are emotional three year olds and they indeed do think they are the center of the universe. Narcisstic people just don't get it when others don't play the game they want when they want...

One of them is just an absurd liar.. he talks of fights he won and then later I talk to people that were on the scene and the truth is that he got his ass handed to him... and he's in his 60's and gets in fights!! I suppose that fighting is a part of a chaotic lifestyle LOL

You described ego-centricity not narcissisism.
 
Psychopath test:

A: Now be brutally honest, was your very first thought I'd like to marry one of those girls?

B: Or was your first thought about keeping them tied up in your cellar for sex toys?





If you answered B you are a normal guy

If you answered A get out of this business now you pussy :p

Seriously Google dsm iv. I don't know your source but this thread is full of bad info. I get the impression you guys watch too many bad movies and television shows. Kind of like learning to trade by watching boiler room or whatever that stupid movie was called.

DSM, you mean the same process that used to list homosexuality and sadomasochism as mental illnesses? Lol.

For further info, there are some links here, although wikipedia is kinda unreliable so it's best to check the sources:
