Trading from home... a "problem"

[JTrader]

My decision is final.

Hi

Just so you are all aware.....

I have today asked LMQ to ban me from T2W until 1st November, as i feel it will help my concentration when trading, and i will not have to rely on will power alone.
If it does help, i will ask LMQ to extend the ban until 1st December. If it helps again, I will extend the ban indefinately/4eva! .

Have fun T2W bunnies .

PS - And if I don't resurface in the mean time, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Hey mate don't do it.

I'll miss ya and your banter !!

That's what the web is there for, having some fun and a good time while waiting for setups imo.

All the best anyway mate !

HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON

Shame. I was enjoying the dating advice thread.

He'll be back. As Van Morrison sang, you can't make it on your own.

But I sympathise with his action. What am I doing here, wasting time again when I should be analysing that data....

 

[shadowninja]

What are you dong here? Avoiding paralysis?

 

[JTrader]

Thanks for the concern guys.

My 10(+) day ban starts tomorrow.

I have deleted all unnecessary bookmarks out of my favourites column so that i will not be tempted to let my attention wander away from trading. Doing this with T2W proved not to be enough, as i just ended up having to bloody type t2w into google every time!!!

T2W is the only forum i have an affliction towards, and trading is the only general topic that i have an affliction towards posting about, and while T2W is a very valuable resource, my trading has reached a critical stage where i know what needs to be done, and i just need to do it.

Posting breakfast cereal advice for the tiramisu & bacon lovers, purely out of boredom is an unneccessary distraction when all said & done!

I tend to visit T2W in moments of boredom, become embroiled in some discussion that can often become a distraction and lead to mistakes. When the goal is to make as much $ in as short a space of time of possible, such antics become slightly baffling, as seen as they lead to mistakes & non maximisation of profits!
Also, it is often in these moments of boredom, that i would benefit strongly from focusing on the task at hand - trading. Therefore i am going to practise, focusing on the task of trading in moments of boredom, and not seeking escapism in browsing the web. Hopefully i will now turn this weakness into a strength. As with many things in life, just when you feel like quitting, this is often when you should be going that extra mile & remaining focused to ensure goal attainment.

I am sure that this will be a positive step for me.

If i turn the self imposed ban into a permanent one, I'll be sure to return at some stage to let you know how it all turned out.

Cheers

good luck

JT.

OK.

I will go out in sympathy for the day. No ET, T2W, TL after this. And only once to any other site I go to except Google

I'll let you know tomorrow (if I can still find the thread once we've all left for the day).

Please note though Jtrader. After you've pulled everyone off the site Sharky probably won't ever let you back!

Good Riddance ! With JTrader gone we can all freely discuss the real way to make money trading.

And the truth about picking up women.

 

[MrGecko]

And the truth about picking up women.

Maybe he's realised the way to meet women is to stop talking to a collection of strange men on the internet, and acutally go and start a conversation with a real woman.

What? Realdoll, The World's finest Love Doll?

Oi!

Where's my ban:?:

How cams i could log in :?:

Samone tronna pull a fast one on me :?:



Don't make me post filthy porno links.......:!:

 

[shadowninja]

Don't ban him!!

 

[Adamus]

JTrader, it's not T2W that's the problem here. You'll find something else to occupy your boredom, because presumably you need the broadband connection for your datafeed.

Just restrict yourself to surfing T2W after market close.

Actually the ban worked a treat. It enabled me to reduce my boredom initiated web browsing by about 70%. I hope to improve further.

I will soon be asking for my T2W ban to be recommenced - for an "indefinate period."
It really helped my trading, and enabled me to maintain focus throughout the day. There are just too many pips top be made to have any distractions that will inevitably reduce my pip totals.

I made one post on another forum to ask a serious trading question. It only got one response, and so i have started the same new thread here. Once thats done with, its ta ta again from me .

Cheers.

I feel like I'm being used.
