[12:44] <NihabaAshi> Thanks...
[12:44] <NihabaAshi> I think its related to the fact I'm trading longer now...
[12:44] <WannaBeATrader> you were right on...
[12:44] <NihabaAshi> Before...I was usually done by 11am est
[12:45] <WannaBeATrader> probably range now..
[12:45] <NihabaAshi> Then missing all the big moves that occurred afterwards.
[12:46] <NihabaAshi> Toddler (2year old) is also key...
[12:46] <NihabaAshi> He's now sleeping most of the nights which means I'm getting more rest...
[12:46] <NihabaAshi> Which in turns means I'm not exhausted by trading by 11am est.
[12:46] <szubaark> yeah makes sense.
[12:47] <NihabaAshi> Yep...those first few months after he was born...trading was painful (physically)...
[12:47] <NihabaAshi> Back aches, red eyes...was sleeping a few hours per night it seems :(
[12:48] <NihabaAshi> Simply, my EDGE is rest :)
[12:49] <NihabaAshi> Speaking of which...time for my 1 hour nap.
