The Disciplined Vacationer, I mean Trader

Well, I am back from Hawaii and somewhat refreshed after the nightmare flight(s) yesterday. This is how my day went: Maui to Oahu to Austin to Houston to Newark (17.5 real hours and 23.5 clock hours). Austin was not on the schedule but poor weather in Houston made the plane turn around and sit on a runway in Austin, Texas for several hours. I prefer the direct flight we took from NJ to Hawaii two weeks ago.

I must ask myself: Why do I live in New Jersey? As a citizen of the United States, I could decide to move to Hawaii tomorrow so what is stopping me? We’ll see what happens.

The picture below was taken during our last afternoon at the pool in Maui; so what was I reading? I was actually reading The Disciplined Trader: Developing Winning Attitudes by Mark Douglas for the first time. I have never read a book by Douglas but I love this one and I am looking forward to reading his next book. I recommend his first book as I am about 90% complete.

I will look to upload some pictures from Maui as they are better than the ones from Oahu (in my opinion). I will also start to get back in sync with the market but it will take some time. Checking my screens, I can see that EDU, JSDA, ZUMZ, COGO, SHLD, CBEY and JLL have all performed well while I was gone.

It’s good to be back – I have so much to catch up on but I am actually looking forward to the market.

  1. Hey! Is that a ceeegar or a highlighter you are holding?

  2. You should move to Maui, especially if you are an afterhours trader.

    I have been living here for 10 yrs now (moved here when I was 20). Greatest decision I ever made.

    Aloha from Maui,
