    North fork of Long Island.

    4 years 1 month 29 days 6 hours and 20 minutes as of 3:40EST

    Trade everything except debt and forex and don't plan on it.

    99% of my trades are triggered based on daily closing prices...with typical holding periods of weeks. Other 1% are quick opportunistic intraday plays i.e news, gaps, major technical levels.

    EDIT: My time frames are anything from 1 hour to 1 week.

  6. Melbourne, Australia. Traded stocks for 5 years, in between working as an I-Banker. Some forex also (but find having open positions 24 hours/day a little difficult).

  9. Deptrai, one of the main reasons I chose trading over other careers is because it allows me to live where I want. I also moved to FX from equity since FX is a unregulated market (less political or government bullshit).
