Looking to relocate. But to where?

There's a certain irony that freed from the constraints of living where you must because of kids, you now must live where you must of your job (that one of the key benefits of is not having to live where you must for the job). :)

What preparation do you have to do before the market opens? (just asking rhetorically). And is there a reason you couldn't hit your morning session in pajamas, and then get ready for your day during "lunch", then back for the last two hours with a whole day left from 1pm?

And why not just travel around aimlessly and without an itinerary? Take flights / buses / whatever on Saturdays so you have a whole Sunday to settle down and figure out internet and familiarize yourself with the place. Repeat as necessary when you get bored of a place, until you don't. You can still trade while you're basically vacationing for a living. I've considered renting out my place, quitting my day job, and doing exactly this.

(Also, ignore the people telling you not to go places they're too scared of).
Actually don't go to the places you're too scared to go.

So much of this comes down to self-knowledge/awareness. I need to be very deliberate before the markets open. Get up. Meditate. Take the dog out. Shower. Eat breakfast. That’s an hour and a half right there. Only then am I ready to get to my computer and get my head in the game.

So that’s why i’m such a stickler for time zone.

I’m probably not a good fit for the vagabond lifestyle.
 
Anyone trading from a sailboat while in various ports when blue water cruising? That has always appealed to me but have done very little of it myself, only as a crew member on a friends boat. Cruise the world from one exotic destination to the next, sounds like an epic adventure - with swing trading it could work out.

I have never head of good internet connections in international waters. maybe others can comment.

That is about as ignorant a comment as I have ever seen on EliteTrader. First Mexico is in North America, not Central America. Second, I have been to Mexico 8 times, all on business and all in Mexico City. True there are some extremely poor parts of the city, but there were also parts, both residential and commercial, that were as affluent and modern as the best places in the USA. And if you think the USA is 100% great, google "Texas Colonias". You would probably be shocked to learn that over a million people in the USA live without indoor plumbing or electricity.
