Annie.. there is a lot that goes in, its not half as easy as it seems. I'm usually up every night until 4-5 to catch everything all the news, bloomberg, Asian markets, more research. Charting alone takes 2-3 hours. I had the earnings plays ready and check out everything and still I lost money on my 'bundle' of net remnants. But as long as you don't sell they are just paper losses. And I made up for it with the earnings plays since I got full positions of those and only had 200 shares of the 'nets. Its all worth it simply because I used to stay up at night for old job especially during the 'Florida Season' and my compensation for an hour was about as much as a trading commission (17.95). I asked for more and got double that but the actual work I put in, it always ended up that amount. I can't even begin to compute my hourly take now. But by next fiscal it will be 7 figures a year on average. I sleep better now and I don't have to meet deadlines and if I can't work as much one night then I sleep more. I have on occasion slept through much of the day. I have not had one common cold, only a handful of minor headaches in 18 months compared with the FLU once a year, and headaches several times a week when I was working freelance. I never drink, take any medication, or need any 'pick me ups' at all. The market is the best.
