    Just a simple poll to see where most active daytraders trade from. I'm expecting the vast majority to trade from home.

    Myself, I trade from my office. I initially thought about trading from home, but didn't think I would like the daily isolation and lack of personal interaction.

    For those who trade from home, what do you consider to be the benefits and detriments? Yeah, yeah, I know trading in your underwear. But beyond that what is it?

    First half of trading day I am trading from my office, then at lunch time (8pm here) I go home and continue from there.

    if you don't mind me asking, what kind of internet connection are you using? DSL, Dialup, wireless?
    Oh and where are you?
    Are you moored? On the hook?

    I consider getting dressed for work putting on clean Adidas tear away Sweats! The snaps make 'em easier to remove for the other session.
