    This has nothing to do with trading, sorry, trading is essentially boring.. trading doesn't require much discussion, not the way I do it.. Why do people that are trading relatively tiny accounts want to know anything about the economy, fundamentals, etc.. It's superfluous to what I do.. I hope I never get to the point where I have to think about things that Warren Buffett has to know.. forget that, I'm getting a headache thinking about it... I'll work on my list of Psychopath tells elsewhere, life is a big Montessori School to me, current area of study is tells for MBTI and the Psychopaths crept into the landscape.. and I just bubble over.. Bubbled right over on the hallowed halls of ET. What a bumpkin I must be... I'll chastize myself at some point, I promise...

    [​IMG]


    A: Now be brutally honest, was your very first thought I'd like to marry one of those girls?

    B: Or was your first thought about keeping them tied up in your cellar for sex toys?





    If you answered B you are a normal guy

    If you answered A get out of this business now you pussy :p

  10. DSM, you mean the same process that used to list homosexuality and sadomasochism as mental illnesses? Lol.

    For further info, there are some links here, although wikipedia is kinda unreliable so it's best to check the sources:
