Van Tharp has created a kind of trader personality test which is really interesing. If you aren’t familiar with him, Van is one of the early trading psychology trainers and educators to become well known. He was featured in Market Wizards, and later authored Trade Your Way to Financial Freedom, which is a book I definitely recommend.
Tharp’s new test takes you through something like 35 questions (quick multiple choice) and at the end provides some determinations on what type of trader you are. If you’ve been through other personality type tests, you’ll be familiar with the general concept. Might be that you get something useful out of it.
