Frequently Asked Questions

What is the TPI Trading Personality Test?

TPI (Trader Personality Indicator) is an educational trading self-assessment informed by behavioral finance and trading psychology. The 110-question Pro version examines four dimensions: Decision Mode, Time Preference, Risk Attitude, and Emotion Control, helping you reflect on possible cognitive biases and blind spots.

What are the 16 trading personalities?

The 16 trading personalities are combinations of 4 dimensions:

  • Decision Mode: Systematic (S) vs Intuitive (I)
  • Time Preference: Long-term (L) vs Short-term (T)
  • Risk Attitude: Aggressive (A) vs Conservative (C)
  • Emotion Control: Rational (R) vs Emotional (E)

For example: STAR "The Faceless" represents a systematic, short-term, aggressive, and rational trading style.

How long does the test take?

Pro has 110 questions (~20 minutes), Standard has 50 questions (~8 minutes), and Lite has 30 questions (~3 minutes). Pro and Standard save progress in your browser so you can resume later.

Are the test results accurate?

TPI is a descriptive self-reflection tool, not a clinically validated psychological instrument and not a predictor of returns. Its results summarize your answers into tendencies; compare them with your trading journal and real behavior before acting on them.

How can I use the test results to improve my trading?

The test report provides detailed analysis of your trading style characteristics, potential strengths, and risk blind spots. Understanding your personality type can help you:

  • Choose trading strategies that suit your personality
  • Identify and avoid common psychological traps
  • Develop more reasonable risk management plans
  • Adjust your trading approach in different market conditions
