22)prepared traders feel at ease while unprepared traders often feel weary
23)Skilled traders bring the money to them and cannot be lured to chase the money

c)Quick tempered-impulse traders will go broke through angered and or hasty acts
d)Pride-those concerned with reputation will not regard risk well enough
e)compassionate-he who cannot take money from others or lose it will never sacrifice temporary advantage for long term gain
