    I have a friend who's a pilot/trader and he does better then most imo.
     
  4. I have heard that they are - must be very disiplined and follow checklists.

    And would army folks be more diciplined at trading?

    Both are trained to make quick and correct decisions - their lives depend upon it?

    i also think that profession would be one of the better ones for trading.

    1. discipline
    2. Used to being bored
    3. Knows how to handle stress
    4. overall calm
    5. lots of study and preperation.
