How do you Trade and manage Office ?

#1
Dear Friends

Several of us have fulltime jobs to manage and some of us do trading as well.

My question to experienced members is

1.Is it safe to trade and work on other issues at office/meetings/travel etc simultaneously?

2.Many offices block trading website access (mine does).So how does one work around this ?

Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences.

Hi

Thats a good option.

More importantly dont you think one needs to give time and attention to both office and trading ?

Also it may be costly mistake if one misses important things in both ,isnt it?

You got the answer and still asking :)
You cannot do intraday, unless you are ready to lose, without paying 99.9% attention to the market action. Actually it depends upon the time interval you trade in .. it is very much possible if you are a weekly/monthly trader... just buy and forget.. check every morning the price in newspaper and put a sell/buy order and go to office.

If you want to trade markets for intraday then treat them as 'business', don't leave your shop unattended otherwise you may face economic & mental loss :)

If you know this already, why are you asking this?

Are you doing some exhibition or show-off of your wisdom :rolleyes:

Hi there

I dont think asking about something which one has not done is wrong.

People who are experienced and have done it can only guide newcomers.I can only guess since I have not done it myself.

Hope that clarifies.

If your office blocks something and if you somehow manage to get around it, then too after sometime you will be caught. You will have to use your personal (unfiltered) net. Like as someone suggested, buy a laptop and net.

As for the question of Office+Trading, your efficiency will burn on both sides. You will neither be a better employee not a good trader. You will have to give undivided attention to do better.

Or you can do something which does not require your constant attention. Like instead of doing intraday, buy-hold shares for several weeks/months before reselling.

Samsung star with + Vodafone + mobile version of icici direct & u r trading platform is ready.....but don't do intra day on this setup u will definitely mis timing for selling...u can put delivery order through this setup....try some proxy sites through which u can chk trading sites...ask u r any frnds from office n/w security....but there is risk of getting caught also...

other option u can try trade via phone if u r broker supports it.... recommended for delivery based not for intraday....

& most imp use above things at u r own risks...;)
