<p>I've recently rediscovered the power in the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myers-Briggs%5FType%5FIndicator" rel="nofollow">MBTI</a> personality profiles and now I'm wondering if they can be used to help you invest. I searched around on Google for a site that would list something like the 16 personality types and give well matched strategies for how each type should invest. I'd want to see where the investing powers are listed in addition to their weakness and blind spots for each type. </p> <p>I suspect that [E]xtraverts are more oriented for day trading and [T]hinkers like buy-and-hold better but I'd like to see if someone has actually researched into this. </p> <p>Is there any research into "investing" personality profiles for the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myers-Briggs%5FType%5FIndicator" rel="nofollow">MBTI</a> personality types?</p>
