I think, but I am not sure, the poster is referring to traders who are after fantastic returns.
In that case, the game could be different.
You and I been trading about same amount of years, you have 2yrs more. We learned by charting by hand, so we can read charts well. Long term stocks/ETFs I trade with trend and counter-trend mainly on weekly charts. But when it comes to Long Term Commodities, system I have used for 25 years, original entries this system use no trend-it based more on conceptions of supply and demand but I don't use open interest nor volume-think bell curve, even the added signals can only take one sided trades and trend not taken into consideration. And I read charts very well, but I have found trend when taking the trade doesn't mean much, but I need all the trend traders to pile on board to make it go way I want it to go.
Options is another way of profiting on no trend, if all you do is sell options, you want price to sit or move other way, I love options now that I understand them better. Anyone has 65% from get go of having profitable trade when selling them, options can stay in tight range and they can decay when underlying going other way. And if you can read charts/have a strategy, the 65% should go up.
A person with NPD can be very destructive...Hitler! With that said, I believe some people with this "disorder" can be highly driven to achieve something good!
I stopped trading " the way you guys trade" six months ago.I took a break and started thinking outside the trading industry gold rush tools i.e buy indicators ,buy course on trend trading ,buy course on price action ,buy technical analysis education buy eas, buy programming services ,buy signals , buy books , buy option courses , buy 6 monitor sets , , finally it came to buy stress management courses , it did not end there , they said buy emotional intelligence courses and now buy meditation ,mindfulness and breathing courses.
I did a lot thinking and used imagination, and said to the trading gold rush merchants
I got rid of all this /a t/a and trend subjective trading .
I created a formula ,that is a set and forget strategy and I don't have to trade it myself , it is all working great and profitable.
I have a lot of time now , these set and forget strategies are great , I set up the trades then forget and do nothing.https://www.google.co.uk/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=set and forget strategies

I had a mr trend trader put on trades earlier than trading time , because he wanted to close trade early before his dinner time.emotionally driven decision here.think emotionally hijacked by food.
The trend is your friend , until you get emotionally hijacked
This is not a rational trading decision , it is driven by emotions of desire , hunger and fulfillment

You can never win with these characters , best to keep away
Some examples of NPD at various degrees. Sir Isaac Newton, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, and Elon Musk. Trust me...these guys have a "I'm going to change the world" mentality. They are all ASSHOLES and very stubborn when it comes to "WORK"...the "good guys"! These guys aren't sick in the head though...like Hitler, who believed he was the 2nd coming of Christ. Obama, Clinton's, and Trump are NPD'ers. I've heard that wall street is full of these guys...Bernie Madoff.
