i just said that trading all day will obviously give you more opportunnities to trade. so obviously u'll win much .. or loose much.. Unless you are disciplined. That means that bad days u'll have to stop trading after maybe 1 hour bacause u'll reached your limit down ( that you have to set up b4 starting trading ). In any circumstance u'll trade after you are limit down. atm you have to stop trading because you have to ( due to your job..) that's frostating when you are in a good day but that also help you not to overtrade whereas you are "learning". cya
