    Something that am addicted to, positively though.
    I try to balance it out with the rest of my life, but trading has become an integral part of my routine for sure.

    The balancing part is crucial and good, you've managed to get that right :)

    Same with me. I just can't resist trading now. More like an addiction.

    Do you think to yourself; "I wonder if I peek at the screen will one of my positions have gone up suddenly & astronomically, like a lottery tickey win?"
    Do you think along the lines striking a lucky jackpot with trading?
    Are you anticipating an adrenelin rush?

    I understand that.
    That's the allure of penny's btw, big % moves, alas, from experience the penny's provide a rollercoaster ride which can be tough on the nerves. Nice when they go up but the trip up short and sweet, while the trip downwards goes on forever.
    But there's more, penny's are small caps and undercapitilized to the extent it's quite difficult for them to grow.
    But yes, trading is often like buying a lottery ticket.

    Same is the case with me but i like this addiction as long as it works in a positive way.
