How do you keep your PnL? If you're running the show and not a robot, how can you avoid getting dragged down by life-drama? Wouldn't this imply it's best to be alone and avoid outside interaction at all to the best of your ability if your livelihood depends on your intense focus everyday?
i dunno life never seems to bother my trading- but then again my discretion didn't keep me from getting steamrolled by todays flattening in the bond market. each and every day in the market is a game, play it for what it is.
Go to cash and then take some time off - maybe spend 2 weeks in the caribbean carousing with champagne, blow and sluts, Rearden Metal-style?
