At one point I think it was, but these days I`m actually bored with trading.

I have bi-polar tendencies, so it may be just one those down periods I`m having lately.

Perhaps bipolar tendencies is more the product of being a trader rather than any inherent personal qualities. I have manic-depressive tendencies myself.

I think there are two types of addictions that can draw a person to trading. The first is the obvious one, i.e. gambling, and the second is to puzzle-solving. The market is the world's most complex puzzle.
