Former Wall Street trader and scientist John Coates of the University of Cambridge wondered whether finger ratio really correlated with trader success.

They averaged the【C4】______of $1,232,590, nearly six times more than that of men with【C5】______ratios. "I almost fell off my chair," says Coates. "I could not believe what I was seeing."

He says he’s glad to see that economists have【C6】______looking at financial markets in terms of natural【C7】______instead of looking at them in terms of rational people making rational decisions.
Coates,【C8】______, says it is important to note that this study【C9】______on only one type of trading, and increased confidence and quick reactions may in fact be an obstacle to those trading over long periods of time, like investors at hedge funds and investment banks.
