A Day in the Life of a Trader (A day in my Life)
1) I absolutely love my work❤️! In fact, I grew up dreaming to be a trader. So trading, to me, doesn’t feel like working (except when I lose😂).
It’s fascinating because it’s different every day.

2)7:30 AM : Alarm Rings
A typical week day for me begins at 7:30 AM.
I spend the next 30 minutes on my daily chores — get ready for office, grab a quick breakfast & have a hot cuppa coffee.
3) 8:00 AM : Leave for office
On my way to office, I check what happened at the Wallstreet overnight & how are Asian markets performing.
I then look for any macro news that may affect overnight positions
P.S: We are moving to a new bigger office & will share pics of that soon
4) 9 AM - Connect with Trade Room members
I connect with trade room members on zoom & share my plan for the day, stocks to keep in radar & how to play the index & which option strategies to execute

5) 9:07 - Pre Opening session
I keenly observe the pre-opening to get a general sense of where the market is it likely to open. At 9:07 AM, the pre-opening prices are out. I make a note of stocks opening with a big gap up or gap down and keep them on my watchlist.

So the cryptocurrency industry has basically two products, one which is relatively benign and doesn't have product market fit, and one which is malignant and does. The industry has a weird superposition of understanding this fact and (strategically?) not understanding it.
The benign product is sovereign programmable money, which is historically a niche interest of folks with a relatively clustered set of beliefs about the state, the literary merit of Snow Crash, and the utility of gold to the modern economy.
This product has narrow appeal and, accordingly, is worth about as much as everything else on a 486 sitting in someone's basement is worth.
The other product is investment scams, which have approximately the best product market fit of anything produced by humans. In no age, in no country, in no city, at no level of sophistication do people consistently say "Actually I would prefer not to get money for nothing."
This product needs the exchanges like they need oxygen, because the value of it is directly tied to having payment rails to move real currency into the ecosystem and some jurisdictional and regulatory legerdemain to stay one step ahead of the banhammer.
If everyone was holding bitcoin on the old x86 in their parents basement, we would be finding a price bottom. The problem is the risk is all pooled at a few brokerages and a network of rotten exchanges with counter party risk that makes AIG circa 2008 look like a good credit.
