Let's hope I soon can get to the point where my account is big enough to start doing my dayjob parttime and trade half of the eurepean session. My target for this is fall, with a little luck ...

Good luck with your goals. I look forward to the day as well when trading will make up my main income. It's been a long time coming with lots of twists in the road, but a great motivation.

Yea cv, of course it's easy to say for me, when I easily wake up @ 10AM and start trading @ 12PM... My timezone turned out to be good for EURUSD trading.

But I am sure there is a way to correct your schedule so that you would sleep enough and trade effectively... Maybe skip later US session as it's often pretty choppy?

of course you are right, but I'm not good at getting to bed early :)
thinking out loud: maybe going to work earlier (have more or less flexible hours) to start there at 7:45 am (not permitted to start earlier) so I can stop at 4:00 pm there and then start trading about 15 minutes later to have more interesting hours with no morning trading.
or I could start trading from 7am till 8:30 am and from 5:15 pm till 8:30 pm.
What would you do ?
 
cv,

I'd prefer to have one trading session rather than broken by job... Let it even be not the most trendy time, but anyway. Or maybe really concentrate on US markets (SIFs or other futures) for example? :confused:
 
I think I will follow the advice of one trading session, seems to make more sense if you think about it. Thanks for the feedback.
But no more SIF's for me, I'm really done with them, they cost me probably half of my profits over the last two months.

hi CV,

Honestly I think SIF is harder, but not un-doable. You just need to get use to the market characteristic, as SIF behaves very differently vs SIF (and view it as an SIF, not spot FX)..
