What's your personality? Which one makes the best traders?

[murray t turtle]

I agree, I do thoroughly enjoy being in my cave 24 hours a day working on charts, but doing so weakens abilities of having more relationships more so of growing older. Most women are not going to be happy being in a cave. In beginnings much harder than most of going into public, but best to make weaknesses your friend than enemy. Start out making one minute conversations, do every day and eventually you don't know the changes it adds to one's life. I see people more afraid of the unknown, go learn how to defend yourself well in hand to hand combat, after few years, decade, many decades, lost fears many years ago, but still love my cave.

Mostly agree;
but Dave radio Ramsey said get out of the cave + kill something. Talking mostly to men unless your name is Annie Moses Oakly- back in that day= market hunting was legal.,

I am ENTP-a a master debater

Hey I am also ENTP thinking of getting into trading/investing. What do you think is the best way to go about learning and trying trading? I do not have a mathematical/finance background. Should I buy an online course, books, you tube videos, etc.? How did you do it? Thank you!

Only factor is persistence

INTJ, ENTJ, INTP, ISTJ

All the greats of trading and investing, like Warren Buffet, George Soros, Paul Tudor Jones, Jesse Livermore, Richard Dennis, Jim Simons etc

Will most likely be one of these four types. You can probably also include ENTP because it not far off those types.

 

[Innervoice]

A person that is serious and hyper focused; not the “ life of the party” type. They are always thinking about markets, not in any addictive way but in an educational and methodical way.

Patience is the key. If you can patiently take losses, you can do anything in the market.

Patience is the key. If you can patiently take losses, you can do anything in the market.

Patience is certainly one element of trading. It's important, vital, to not let your crazy emotions get the best of you while in the heat of the trade.
But patience alone is not the sole key. Successful trading at any given moment in time is a dynamic Hurricane, Typhoon, of variables. If you've think you've mastered it, or know the future, it's very easy to get humbled. You have to respect the market, like a ship captain respecting the sea.

INTJ as well

There is a reason that the majority of traders are intj when you look at the statistics. Back when I used to mentor, the first thing I did was give them a personality test. Some people are just wired for this shit and if you are you will know what to look for and how to find them

I am amazed to hear that, thank you.
