    Thanksgiving. Christmas. New Years. The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day...

    We're turning into late-Rome.

    Japanese markets are open on Xmas day (newly discovered fact!)

  3. Your a trading to get 'high' rather than trading to make a living. most people can't wait to get off work.

    casino is open 24 hours and that is what the market has become. no reason to have 24 hour forex or 24 hour futures trading at all other than commissions or manipulating trades afterhours. market is illiquid afterhours. markets used to be open 5 hours a day and in asia the market is closed for 2 hours intraday. so afterhours trading is for OTC trading.

    you probably have no family or dysfunctional family.

  4. That is sign of gambling 'addiction'

    24 hour obsession. the feeling of cocaine is samething or same high as winning the lottery or winning $5000 in a slot machine with only $50.

    since you have no life or family, the market is your family.

    the market: I'm your daddy, I'm you momma, I'm the man in the alley. I'm the pusher man.

    the market is your 'family'

    cause you have no family or love ones.

    Lol. Is this indicative of the data analysis methodology you employ whilst trading?

    If it was a couple of months from now, it would be ok. But don't the people who created these holidays understand there are traders in Wisconsin with nothing to do tomorrow?

    Seriously. You can only fill so many bird feeders and clean the driveway with the tractor so many times. But We're supposed to get more snow, so maybe I'll be occupied.

    I've started banging a 19 year-old, so now I'm cool with holidays.
