I hate holidays when the market is closed

Quote from Handle123:

Long ago I decided trading just wasn't going to be enough to make me happy, so I have built businesses, eventually have others run them. This year I rented three lots and sell Xmas trees, it has been fun to oversee during evenings and I help others to have a job during these hard times.

I found some fifteen years ago, I was getting majorly burned out from all the trading I was doing. Had to force myself away from the game and find other avenues to spend my time. Too much of a good thing eventually makes the game old.

Happy Holidays all.

Do you have a family ? Small children ?

Things like that tend to occupy your hands during, before or after the Holidays.

Best wishes for you as well, especially on your health.

My kids occupy my hands pretty much 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year. Not sure what's so different here.
 
Trading around holidays is great. You can make a profitable study of just the day after Thanksgiving. I always trade the shortened session after turkey day as it's pretty much free money. This evening is easy as well, and I've been imbibing to boot. Probably will take tomorrow off and come back strong after Christmas. Can't always rely on trading around the Christmas holiday because it doesn't always fall on the same day of the week. The day after Thanksgiving is the best. Go pull up the last few years. You'll see what I mean. You're welcome.

Yes there is that. T'day itself is a bitch, though.
 
my market open in 5 minutes. It's the day after Christmas over there. Gotta get into that forex man. It's almost never closed.

You're right, of course. Just don't know that I have any kind of edge there. Will look into it..
