    I spend upwards of 18 hours a day staring at a screen as it's both my profession and my hobby. My eyesight hasn't really gotten worse, but I'm sure it's just waiting around the corner. I try to maintain proper screen time and look away to focus on something else far away for a few minutes if I feel any strain. Also, keep your distance from your screen and use a tool like flux.

    You should find a local optometrist. You may have an underlying condition such as astigmatism that could be exacerbated by the screen. They sell special glasses, that while pricey, are a god send for people with these issues. If you know the condition it can be treated.

    Method looking PERFECT finally, move to more directional, all the years chasing Range wasted comes to mind.

    Still keep dropping back to range plays, but it's getting less as I watch / trade direction.

    Upside is more, SL's are tighter, winning odds higher, no brainer!!

    Cold pack, stronger reading glasses and drops working so far, I can read the screen tonight without glasses, 2 days ago, BLUR city, it's not great but readable and that's end of day.

    If I can't stabalize soon yes, go get a eye test, but hassle.

    Only 48, eye sights 3 years ago started to go for up close, needed glasses for laptop sometimes these days need for 26" monitor at home most of the time :(

    18 hours per day, it was that 20years ago doing stocks with all the charts and research every night and morning, only 2 or 3 hours these days trading wise, likely Call of Duty game on my tablet doing the damage, it's very very good though and free!!

    1am SLEEEP!!!

    Try to have a full day trading well until bored, then try to ride my bike!!

    I'm back! +10 on Dax, bailed to soon but finding feet :)

    Slowed it all down, I'm thinking not just reacting badly.

    Another +8 dax long caught the turn. Market went flat, saw a big buyer off lower BB, joined them.

    2 Tester Trades, weren't going anywhere so killed, -4 and +1

    Look to join Dax long maybe soon..

    Tester, get in, if it doesn't look to be going my way, get out cheap / small profit and repeat, rather than marry it and wait for it to run to SL!!

    Method Tweak!!!

    It's more about 6sma's direction, so Env 12 0.02 changed to 6 based.

    Started churning losses again, why the change of tactic, just random chance nothing to be concerned.

    +10
    +8
    -4
    +1
    -4
    -12
    +4
    -10
    -8
    +33

    Last 2 trades, jumped on the downward direction, turned up, SL hit, rejoined it on the up and nice little runner +33 nice!!
