I hate holidays when the market is closed

Quote from WinstonTJ:

the market isn't closed - did you trade london today? why did you choose not to trade today?

Because it's a day to spend with your family and loved ones.


Translation: Because my wife would kill me.
 
Quote from tortoise:

And don't give me this "it's a day to spend with your family and loved ones." I spend 365 days a years (well, nearly) with my family and loved ones, and I don't need the "day to be thankful" trope from folks who get paid by their employers to spend the day "with family and loved ones."

Actually, this would be a fun experiment. Give people the choice between getting paid and "spending the day with family and loved ones." I wonder which would win?

I hate holidays in general-- i would venture most self employed folks do-- its just for the corporate cubicle class to get a break. Everyday is a holiday for me. surf
 
Quote from jl1575:

You can trade Forex, and there are some good price moves for the USD/JPY or EUR/JPY pairs this morning. In fact, there are more opportunities in Forex than in ES these days, and it is also easier to trade/profit.

yes, that was very good move in the Euro, .50%

or maybe he'd rather sleep than make money
 
+1 to the OP. i nearly went insane when the mkt closed for sandy. why the hell is trading electronic if a storm affecting the northeast can shut everything down?
