Ten Years Later — I Still Don't Trade on My Birthday
Ten years ago today I wrote a short blog post called “28th September – don’t trade on your birthday!”
The principle was pretty simple. If you've built yourself a life where you have some control over your time, why spend your birthday sitting in front of the screens?
Go and enjoy the day, spend it with people who matter to you, take stock of the year you've just had and think about what you want from the next one.
Ten years later, I'm still following my own advice. So there'll be no Monday Market Update today.
The original 2016 post is here:
I will, however, be back at the screens tomorrow.
I'm opening up the VTP Stage 2 Technical Tuesday Weekly Call as a public YouTube livestream. We'll take a live look across the markets, identify areas of strength and weakness, and discuss what's got my attention this week.
Tuesday 29th September | 12:30 UK
Join me live:
Normal MMU service resumes next Monday.
Until then, I'm going to practise what I preach.
Trade well...but not on your birthday!
