Become a full-time trader
Hello everyone, how was your weekend?
The old-school phone business has been忙殺ed by last week’s trade analysis and administrative work.
It has been almost two months since I became a full-time trader.
Even before that there were paid leave, compensatory time off, and hospital stays, so in reality more time has passed since I became a full-time trader.
What changed since becoming a full-time trader is that my trading time has simply more than doubled.
In particular, I’ve increased trading during European hours and from the London FIX to the Asia-Pacific open, which I couldn’t do during my salaryman days.
Also, until now I had a salary as a supplemental income and insurance, but I trade under the pressure of not having insurance, which brings stress to trading.
And since becoming a full-time trader, I’ve especially felt something like salaryman loss.
In my case, I spent a long time as a sales salaryman, and I’ve built a livelihood around interacting with people. Now as a full-time trader, I often wonder whether I’m suited to be a full-time trader.
Now, regarding this week’s market: there are das ECB board meeting minutes, German GDP, and the South African central bank policy rate announcement, so we cannot take our eyes off the ongoing US–China trade war and Britain’s Brexit negotiations.
We should also keep an eye on the continued declines in the Dow, the Nikkei, and crude oil prices.
Also this Thursday morning, I will be doing a live mid-rate trade broadcast at JFX, so if you have time, please tune in.
Markets are about to open any moment, and I hope to face the market慎重に while enjoying trading this week as well.
