What type of trader are you?

Stevo is a strategic trader.
You are a Strategic Trader!

You probably live in a world of ideas and strategic planning. This is because you value intelligence, knowledge, and being competent. These are great qualities for a trader/investor. In fact, you have the three core qualities that are essential to being a great trader (i.e. you have the ability to see the big picture, new possibilities and connections between things. You make decisions based on logic and analysis and you are decisive, orderly and do things sequentially). You have an original mind and a great drive to implement your ideas and achieve your goals. Thus, if trading success is important to you, you'll probably find a way to achieve it...

One of your Trading Strengths

Originality and drive; willingness to follow your ideas through to completion.

One of your Trading Challenges

Probably so logical that you don't recognize when emotions are causing you to self-destruct.
 
I did it again...


You are a Aussie Rob Trader!

For fear of litigation I had to delete the comments.
 
Think I am the first with this trader type... agree with it somewhat, like to give others advice, if only they were smart enough to listen :cool:

You are a Facilitative Trader!

The Facilitative Trader type suggests that you are very quiet and serious. You tend to be very sociable and good at facilitating others as a group leader. You tend to provide inspiring leadership as you find potential in everyone and you want them to fulfill their potential. As a result, you might be a good leader of traders, but be aware that you could be stretching yourself to be an individual or solitary trader. However, you probably like to be well organized, which is quite a useful trait for a trader/investor and you do have two of the three core qualities that are essential to being a great trader (i.e. you have the ability to see the big picture and connections between things. You are also decisive, orderly and able to do things sequentially).
 
Here is another related link. I believe this has already been posted in this forum before, but still interesting read for those who hasn't seen it.

I am an ENTJ by a fair margin, done through a lot of tests before including a fully paid one. Dr Tharp has most likely categorised your Myer's Brigg personality type for each of the traders type.
 
You are an Accurate Trader! "I am? LOL"

If you are an accurate trader, then you tend to be quiet and very responsible in meeting your obligations even beyond the call of duty. You are also thorough, practical and very accurate. You are the type of person that I'd want keeping track of my trades and that is your strong point. Your world probably tends to be very concrete and you value harmony and co-operation. However, trading/investing ideas tend to be very abstract. In addition the trading world tends to be very solitary...

One of your Trading Strengths

If someone hands you a system that works – you can follow through with it. You like things that are proven.

One of your Trading Challenges

Thinking too much could lead to analysis paralysis which could be a constant threat.
