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

[stanley_west_56]

I consider myself an ambivert and a firm believer in learning. In forex, proper education is really important for successful trading and risk comes when you are not aware about what you're doing.

I don’t get distracted easily. If I have planned to do something, I will stick to it and won’t let any distractions win over me. I analyse the market thoroughly and trade only when I am in a position to take a loss.

I personally try to hold on to my emotions and develop strong traits such as confidence and optimism, which I believe I have developed and will continue to work on.

So yeah. Which personality type do you think makes the best traders?

Apparently i'm a logician/ INTP-T. And i would say it's quite accurate, even though i never thought about this. What about you?

I'm an INTP-T.

Hopefully that jives with trading. You need to follow rules to trade but you also have to be very agile i think.

Using Big 5 personaility traits:

I think the ideal trader would be:

Low in neuroticism, high in conscientiousness, more introverted than extroverted.
