Whether you trade full-time or part-time, finding ways to effectively manage your time is a skill necessary to not only stay productive but also to keep your sanity intact.
What are some time management tips you follow? Do you use time management tools or methods? How do you stay organized and efficient?
Thanks for the question! As a beginner trader, I’m still learning to effectively manage my time while trading. However, a few tips that have worked for me include:
Setting clear goals and priorities for each trading session
Planning my trading activities in advance and creating a schedule
Taking regular breaks to rest and recharge
Using a trading journal to track my progress and identify areas for improvement
I also use time management tools like calendar apps and reminders to stay organized and efficient. Ultimately, I’m still learning and experimenting with different methods, but I’m always open to new suggestions and advice!
I trade off the H4 and only look at the charts exactly at each candle close for barely minute. What I do with the rest of the time is anything to keep me occupied for the next 4 hours
I’m a part-time trader, so I only trade when I’m free. Whenever I have a bit of spare time, I check out what’s happening in the market and make trades based on that. I don’t have a fixed schedule for trading because I’ve got other important stuff going on that I need to deal with too.
because it is not my first job i spend about 2 hours in a day for that
in that 2 hour i analyze sometime i check my old trades i swear to my broker for changing spreads all the time but i check my trades at work too
i do not go to instagram and twitter and places like that
on weekend i go and try to learn something new about strategies and other things
i also try to check forums to learn and ask my questions here
the other times are for fun and my family
so i think i can not tell you any suggestion because i can not control it myself too
My ultimate recommendation is: using social media as less as possible and meditating at least 5 minutes a day, 20 minutes if you ain’t got time for meditating 5min a day
I tried to be a full-time trader but I had problems so right now I’m on a break and maybe I can try being an Uber driver!
But for time-managing, I did not really have that problem. I used to be a student and I didn’t have problems there since I prioritize my time and I spend enough time on everything as important as it is.
it doesn’t matter that drawing something needs 2 hours, if it was not in my first priorities I would just spend the time that I was supposed to spend on that.
So I suggest you do not care and spend time on different items if they are not your priority!
I will suggest you to use time blocking skill, it involves scheduling specific blocks of time for different tasks, (even 20 minutes) and avoiding distractions during those blocks of time. (not checking your phone) This can help you to stay focused and make progress on important tasks.
I use it when I am watching market or analyzing. I just spend 30 minutes on that and I’ll give myself a 5 minute break.
