    Amazing all the tools available on your phone for trading. I was able to close a bunch of short options (pennies) and sell short new options on SPY while stuck in traffic.

    I already had the plan in my head but it was nice to be able to execute the trades using the Etrade and TD ameritrade apps on my iPhone.

    Who would of thought this was possible 15 years ago.

    When I am stuck in traffic I get anxious, sweaty and unhappy, I most definitely don't want to trade.

    first thing to note that you're not using wifi, network can be waving on the road. and I agree with mlawson, this behavioral situation is very common in traffic, not advisable trading in car. Read forex related book is the better option if you have any.

    Some things I can do at the same time, but this is not one of them.
