Is there something called trading addiction? I think so.
It means there's people when they don't trade, there hands shake. They need to trade, not for living, but for their life. If they don't trade they fall into depression. The danger is real. Trading addiction is as dangerous as drugs, cigarettes, or alcohol addiction. I think alot of traders don't realize that too much trading can be very harmful not just to their money, but also their health. Saturday and Sunday are horrific for the trading-addicted. They can't wait until Monday. They lose all semblance of social life and are consumed into studying candlesticks, reading stock sites and blogs, and visiting trading forums.
I can give you this one advice. When you feel like you have to trade, just to get by your day, you're addicted. You need help.
