Abstract
We investigate several possible links between psychological factors and trading performance
in a sample of 80 anonymous day-traders. Using daily emotional-state surveys over a ve-
week period as well as personality inventory surveys, we construct measures of personality
traits and emotional states for each subject and correlate these measures with daily normal-
ized prots-and-losses records. We nd that subjects whose emotional reaction to monetary
gains and losses was more intense on both the positive and negative side exhibited sig-
nicantly worse trading performance, and large sudden swings in emotional states seem
especially detrimental to cumulative prots-and-losses. Psychological traits derived from
a standardized personality inventory survey instrument do not reveal any specic \trader
personality prole", raising the possibility that trading skills may not necessarily be innate,
and that dierent personality types may be able to perform trading functions equally well
after proper instruction and practice.
MDHG for Sierra Charts with volume profile histograms, VAH/VAL/VPOC (Current version = 1543) This was posted at the SC support board and I modified it.
There are two studies hidden, they can both be enabled if so desired. One is a different trade indicator study and the other is a volume study in region 2.
This was initially made for /CL and I'm using it for /ES.
The Volume profile value areas may not be precise, I'm more accustomed to MP, although the VPOC does appear to be accurate.
The large volume trade indicator will need to be adjusted to whatever suits the trade levels the end user likes to see.
I personally have remove the DOM depth, it can be disabled/enabled via Trade > Show Depth
Here is poor man's version of Market Profile. I saw it in the Ninja Trader support forum and thought might be helpful for people who like to see the market profile chart without paying for it. You need to open an intra-day chart (like a 5 minute chart) and then add the indicator. There are settings for begin and end of day session, and display options for just (POC, VAH, VAL) or TPO, etc.

Indicator prints unlimited number of user defined reminders on the occurring bars on the chart. Also works on historical bars. I mainly use it to remind me of scheduled Economic Reports, and other miscellaneous times, and daily tasks. Reminders list only has to be entered once. An unlimited number of reminders can be used. Use '\n' to insert a new line in the displayed text.
Schedule is in the following format, one line per entry, in 24 hour military time:
Example: THU @ 08:25 Jobless Claims report => Every Thursday at 8:25am, print the specified text on the chart
Example: 3rd THU @ 09:55 Philly Fed Report => 3rd Thursday of every month at 9:55am, print the specified text on the chart
Sample entry list:

August 13th, 2012 08:26 PM Don Laing Great a welcome addition. Being a lousy programmer how do I use /n to add lines?
January 31st, 2012 04:27 AM Klausi This is a great help in every day's trading. You are reminded of all session opens and ends as well as of all FOMC + con
tract change dates, also to any custom - dates of your choice, whenever you have added them to the string array.
