The Investment Thread

but it also sounds like you have the ability ( when not on road ) to be 100% focused on the market, your trades etc.

I had always wanted to dabble, but my job, i can get a call or client that can take up my day and by time i look up, market goes haywire and i would be in/out the $$$.

but thanks for clarification since i dont execute trades like that, just never really fully understood the mechanics behind it.
If you want a great way to lose money fast, buy some options and check back daily. :hihi:

Yes, I got my arse handed to me several times the past few years by getting my plays together then having to leave for a job then a few days later finally check in to see a masacre. Now I just close everything out before I even jump on a plane or just have minimal low risk positions.

I also had long stretches where I just wasn't invested in anything because there wasn't enough volatility.
