Black Ops 2 out this Tuesday 11/13/2012!

I started playing Call of Duty in August of 2011 (Black Ops and then Modern Warfare 3) specifically because of the parallels I saw between learning to play the game and learning how to trade.

Over the past year of playing Call of Duty, I've learned more about "learning how to trade" than I have from any other single thing I've done. I'll go into more about it later, but for now...

The Call of Duty series has developed a tradition of loading their release trailers with famous personalities. This one is no exeception. You'll find Robert Downey Jr. in the fighter jet!

I have friends and relatives who have BF3 and love it.

My reasons for playing COD (BlOps and MW3 are the only games I even own) are different than anyone else I know.

I play to develop an understanding of what it takes for me to learn to play proficiently so I can apply that understanding to my trading.

As I said above, I have learned more about what it takes to become a better trader by playing these games than any other thing I've read/studied/done over the past 17+ years of trading.

Whether it's COD or BF is pretty irrelevant to me. It's the process that is important to me.

But since I'm already in the COD franchise, I'm going to stick with it.

Thanks for the suggestion though!
