    Yes, quite often it feels that way, especially trying to understand the math, as in option pricing, as in statistical arbitrage as in.... It is more work than doing two day jobs. :(

    Sir, sounds like you guys are in a sailboat with wind in your sails, sailing to Monte Carlo. :cool:

    I am now in a tiny rowboat, rowing like mad trying to survive this tsunami of a market meltdown. :banghead:

    Hi ronnym789,

    I'm curious is the quarantine due to the Pandemic impacted you as a stay at home father ?

    For example, has having you kids home and possibly your spouse home all the time impacted routine as a stay at home father and has it impacted your trading or space to allow you continuing thinking as a trader ?

    One of the reasons why I ask because you stopped visiting Elitetrader.com within days after the quarantine (stay at home).

    It is necessary to switch to positive points and move from negative to positive.

    Totally. If we want to get better at it, we surely need to know how to become positive from negative. Even though its hard sometimes.
