That's right - I've heard it said that the ratio of psychopaths to normal people are higher in CEO positions than any other profession. I'll bet day-trading wouldn't be far behind...and I actually wrote the bot because I was a terrible fear driven trader lol.

Indeed, CEO is the top profession for psychopaths:

however, accountants are the tenth least psychopathic profession. What makes a profession fit for psychopaths is not stress, but dishonesty. That's why the list starts with:

CEO
Lawyer
Media
Salesperson

I don't think daytrading is a good profession for a psychopath because there's nothing to be gained by lying.
