Even though switching to forex has been exciting for me, there are still times during the session when all my trades are in place and I’m just…waiting. What do you guys do to pass the time, while waiting for some serious price action?
Wait Longer;)
- Log off and take a walk, 2. Sleep, 3. Read a book
pray to baby jesus, im sure
he’ll do something
YouTube…
“While the other guy’s sleeping, I’am working. When he’s getting ready, I’am ready.”
Seriously tho, just find something to do… The best part about this career is, you punch your own time card… Clean the yard, paint a room, write a list of things that need done, do 1 a day, it will help your trading…
Like for instance, I just remodeled my entire house practicly, and still traded, and even averaged 1 trade an hour…
Now, Im on my basement, old foundation, so Im repointing it and waterproofing it… I figured it out today, I need about 50 bags of mortar at 60 lbs a bag, lol… Its pretty ruff looking, will post a pic, just for the WOW factor, lol…
But anyways, look at it like this… Your plan to live off forex, for the rest of your life, and being a career path you wish to continue, and never work for someone else, is the ultimate dream, so why would you want to spend 12 hours a day staring at a chart, biting your nails, and surfing the internets, meh…
Break your time up, and live Brah.
Trade demo or better yet trade 5 units with oanda to pass the time. Nothing like small .001 cent losses to help get a feel for scalping
