My impression about personalities that do well trading...

My father and I had this idea where we wanted to train 10 year olds to trade, and not tell them its real money. I am convinced that they have all the traits a good trader needs.

1. They admit freely they are wrong
2. They follow rules
3. They are good at video games

Thats about it. I do not think trading requires above average intelligence. In my opinion it is about following rules and being honest about what you see, free of hope and fear.
