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?
Well, I trade from a boat. Freedom to do what you want, when you want. No boss to answer to. More money than a "real job" Meet a lot of fun people online. No dress code. No obnoxious co-workers. No gossip. Can afford nice things and vacations. Rarely get colds and flu.
First half of trading day I am trading from my office, then at lunch time (8pm here) I go home and continue from there.
Are you Bob or Cathy? 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? Sailboat, powerboat? If your in a marina, I don't believe you about the no gossip part thanks sulong
I consider getting dressed for work putting on clean Adidas tear away Sweats! The snaps make 'em easier to remove for the other session.
