Bannor, I was not suggesting that emotional equanimity is unimportant for trading. I was only dissing the "pop psychology" quiz that over-simplifies emotional responses into a two-dimensional test. For example, the quiz asks questions about how to best comfort someone in distress. To imply that there is a right and wrong way to approach this sort of delicate situation that applies to everyone you know is utter nonsense. Some people (like me) want straight advice, others need more circumspect treatment. Still others (like my boss) are incapable of understanding even constructive advice patiently delivered, and the only recourse is to manipulate them. Such complexity is not admissible in this over-simplified IQ quiz, which dubs it "pop psychology" rather than real psychology.
