Take the Tharp Trader Test

SocialTwist Tell-a-Friend

I received a mailer from the Van Tharp Institute on Friday and one of the inserts was about its Tharp Trader Test.

Other the last few months, one of the things that I've given a great deal of thought to as part of our continuing evolution at Trading Post is helping traders to define what their trading profile is. The Tharp Trader Test, while not exactly what I've envisioned, is definitely an interesting test that will at the very least help you as you're defining what type of trader you are, or what type of trader you ought to be.

Give it a try and see what you think. There are 35 A/B questions and it will take you under 5 minutes to complete.
