yes - for sure

i can suggest these two:-

  1. some analytical/mathematical traits: i’ve never known anyone achieve any trading success without some understanding of the relevant probability and statistics

  2. some “judgement” (or whatever you want to call it) in deciding whose advice to follow - this part’s hugely important when the “consensus of opinion” is usually mistaken and ill-informed, as can readily be inferred from such low long-term success-rates
