Falling asleep at the trading desk

Whatever you do... don't read your journal.

 

Be sure not to have a bowl of soup in front of you. That's some asymmetric risk right there.

 

i had the same problem.

but i was falling asleep everywhere in day time.

i finally traced it to a vitamin D deficiency.

 

yes doing that that is what changed my trading around

 

markets have inertia and tend to keep doing the same thing so this is good advice.

NOW i am following it too though i followed Brooks for a decade or so and traded everything at all times.
i used to trade to kill time and it was expensive.

now i trade for usd and the last two respective days i made 1400 and 744 in about 3 hours after the news releases.

I am learning this harsh truth killing time means killing money.

 

exercise at least 2 hours a day and sleep at 9 pm

exercise will improve circulation and circulation is life

 

did not know you day trade.

you are a professional why should you day trade?. i do not think you have time on your hands
and day trading is the most challenging thing in markets

there is no big money in it -only big thrills-.

 

check vitamin D level.

 

take a small walk around the room/office premises, do some light stretching

 

I'm surprised no one said cocaine
