Can they trade effectively?Should they seek other trading jobs i.e trading educators , forum owners , brokerages , client relationship manager etc ?

 

Mental disorders include personality disorders , behaviour disabilities and cognitive biases.

I have a mental disorder...

 

I wake up on Sunday morning and wish it was Monday... 3 day weekends... dang.

 

Time off is good... but I'd rather be trading.

 

edit: Actually, I do think it's a little f*cked up, but "it is what it is"...

 

Actually... edit again: we are all a little f*cked up. What's the actual question that you are asking? And... why?

Do they regularly mess up ?

Are they having normal emotions and control of their mind , to be able to trade effectively?

I dont think a person with Mental disorder would be able to think highly and trade. I dont know any but this world is full of those inspiring stories of disordered people doing gr8 stuff so someone that comes up doing it could be a possibility.

To earn more money dude, simple. And to be on the safe side. Many people do trades bt they have some other safe side income aswell.

That contradicts with successful trader's mindset , they trade to trade right , money is the reward .Why would they trade right for weeks without reward , since trading correctly may give no reward for days.The ones who aim for money are not successful and need other jobs to pay for their losses by not trading right.Do you understand emotional behaviors?How do these react to losses?
