It's a 35-question survey culled from a more comprehensive one with nearly 200 questions. However, this short survey DOES WORK WELL. When you complete the survey, they provide you a brief summary of your evaluation, and email you a PDF describing your strengths and weaknesses in more detail. The PDF also makes suggestions as to how to improve. I strongly recommend that YOU take this survey (yep, "you" ;~) Here's the link: www.TharpTraderTest.com I'm including the PDF they sent me (a "Planning Trader") in the next post. I'd encourage you to post the PDF they send YOU in this thread also, IF IT'S DIFFERENT (there are 15 categories ... you only get the one that fits you ... would be nice to get a "library" here :~) Here are the categories: High Potential for Market Success : Strategic Trader Planning Trader Good Potential for Market Success With Some Work : Detailed Trader Facilitative Trader Innovative Trader Spontaneous Trader Independent Trader Administrative Trader Values Driven Trader Socially Responsible Trader Accurate Trader Adventurous Trader Potential for Market Success with Lots of Work or Have Others Manage Their Money : Supportive Trader Artistic Trader Fun Loving Trader | |
