  1. no fooking way i`d work with a bunch of d-heads around from 9 to 5.I`d rather die.I might be a sociopath, but my defenition for a sociopath is this: a socioath is a person that didn`t find his/her own society.

    A curiously higher number of backcountry/climbing/distance runner types here. :D

    I'll bet too, a higher-than-expected number of INTp/_ from the Myers/Briggs world.

    Hmmmmm.

  5. I used to work as a business analyst in FMCG. now I devote all my time to forex trading because it's profitable now. In free time I like to practice running and Ping Pong with my friends:cool:

    Yes, you can add me to the constant thinking, reviewing and improving my methodology.

    Maybe an addiction, disorder. IDK.

    I practice after the market closes every night and Sunday...

    This is not fun. Sometimes I wonder if it degrades my performance.

    I'm leaving for a weekend gateway with my girlfriend.. Driving at 11:00 am, not trading but still monitoring and reviewing the week...

    in a bull market there is really nothing to do... 5 minutes a day is over-doing it... the only time to get busy is when they push bogus stories to shake the tree and collect the chips shaken off the tree, that's when I open my wallet and buy more.... but that sort of thing only happens once or twice a year, each lasts a few weeks.... like Aug 2015, Jan 2016, Feb 2018.
