Where does everyone live/trade and how old.

I'm 20. I live in the Chicago suburbs, and I've been trading equities for about 6 months. I am just now getting into options trading.

For those of you debating about what constitutes a trader:
Remember how exciting its was when you were a beginner.
Your first winner..your first winner....learning a new technique...
all those wonderful and new experiences.

Living in Idaho - 23

Daytrading nasdaq emini futures part time, and other days attending class. Dabble in a little spot forex and equity options when set-ups are good. Trading for a little over a year. Pacific time zone can be a bitch - would like to move closer to nyc so I don't have to wake up so early :)

Trading stocks (since I was around 18; not daytrading) & options.

This is my break between graduation and hopefully medical school next fall. I'm learning a lot, even though it is stressful at times. I'm not looking to get rich, just make a living, which is easy since I moved back home.
