Every time I step into a hot shower lately after a long day of trading.....I think to myself what it would be like to trade while being inside a jacuzzi. As I step into a hot shower, I immediately become relaxed and less antsy then an environment of unpredictability(market) and a cold morning making my heart beat faster than normal.

I think to myself, damn I could sit in this shower all day.(jacuzzi) And just watching the market FULLY RELAXED, waiting for the trade to come to you. You have no sense of urgency as you are very comfortable where you are...

Just a thought. I'm curious if other traders on here might think this is a good idea minus getting your equipment wet.

Good idea. Anyone use a treadmill desk?

It'll just ruin the jacuzzi experience for you.


edit: plus the grandpa skin.

You should have a workstation your comfortable in. If it's not comfortable then you need to troubleshoot it. There's too many ways trading in a jacuzzi can go wrong.

Just get a cushy chair, keyboard / mouse rests, a space heater near your feet and a tower fan.
