Is it worth trading the week of Christmas & New Years?

well there you have it. If you're just trying to make a living trading a few hundred shares it's ok. But if you are really big, the algos will get you.

 

that's why at my Christmas Party I only invite really big traders, because I know the small few hundred share traders will spend the whole holidays trying to make a living.

Is it "worth it"?

I guess it depends on how bad you need money.

 

It better be, I just ordered some sushi and sake

 

every day is like this.

 

the last couple of days are good trading days. and same...summer isn't dull at all.

 

the market very volatile in the last couple days, this is no dull market if anyone whose been in the market this long. VIOLENT market.

 

if you are losing money then it's not worth it. you don't get paid to trade if you lose. why do something unless you get 'paid'

 

if you are daytrading every day is same

 

I never thought about it that way

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense

Like the man said, "Out of the mouths of babes comes wisdom."

thank you for your contribution

 

Vix at 12.5 , and you want to short it? At 12.5, I would want to start getting long volty.
