Do you ever trade at work or trade on your work computer? Any reason why you think this might be a terrible idea?
Yes i do trade while in my office although with my personal laptop and phone and not with official laptop or desktop computer. Why I choose to trade at the is because am a day trader and I do see my signal while in the office and is not in any way affecting my job.

Do you ever trade at work or trade on your work computer? Any reason why you think this might be a terrible idea?

no, because you will not concentrate, yes, although it seems easy, but you need peace.
unless your work is easy and you can do it without the pressure of work.



Though I am a student but few months I ago I worked in a office ( project type work) and used that computer to browse bitcointalk and sold my altcoins in a exchanger.Actually office stuff don't know about crypto too much. Also I use incognito tab to use my personal sites Cheesy 

i see on your profile you are 39, and now you say u are student, its confusing.
which school student is 39 years old  Grin

yes of course I have traded while working, because I think trading can be done anywhere as long as there is an internet connection, so you can still observe market movements and can remain to get profit
Yes trading is so easy that we can trade even if we are at work because for this we need our internet connection and our mobile updates along with us then we can gamble at work me also when getting free time I open my trading page and I learn trading from there or I keep checking market so when I feel coins are good to buy I just buy and put in long term trading.

It depends. If you're like a  software engineer of a company and you have a software to build, then I don't think it is a good idea to think of trading right now. Having a laptop for personal use is gonna convenient for you after your work so why not try that if you're having a difficult time to decide whether to do that in your work.
If you do have that kind of work then focusing or minding other things will just simply affect your job which would in result to inefficient and might cause up some trouble.
So in this case its much better to let it pass and do only trades on your break times or simply when you are already in home.Dont risk your day job for a temporary time on trading.
If Boss would caught you in act then say goodbye if you havent given any chance.Some are strict and some might consider it out.

I once traded at work, but I didn't use an office computer. only trade using my own cellphone. I never thought that trading at work is a bad idea when we can focus. but when your concentration in trading, you feel disturbed by office work, I think it's a bad idea if you force to trade in your office. you better trade at home, with maximum concentration without being burdened by other responsibilities.

Ideally, you don't trade while working. No matter how good your focus, your mental isn't totally there cause divided with your jobs and your emotion might not stable. That's a terrible idea. You may feel okay now, but you don't know if your emotion cuts off your decision later, you could take the wrong decision.

I never used a computer in my workplace to trade, it will definitely disturb my focus and make it difficult for me to make decisions.  trading requires a high enough concentration, don't let losing focus because using an office computer makes you lose money.

My real job, for now is not in front of computer and i am bad at trading in phone. So maybe not from me, but if can i will do that because sometime my trading activity is not really on active market. Usually i only set order and after it filled, i set sell order. Only like that actually wouldn't disturb we people to work and we can do both in same time. But unfortunately i can't do it.
I saw people commenting that they are trading at work and some are not but I find trading while at work/job very unethical because basically you are being paid for the job you have at a certain time and doing something else outside of your work. I don't trade while im off with computer coz it tends to make more silly decision and I feel trading at phone is dispersive.
Not unless when you are on break on your work, that is quite reasonable but that does not mean to prioritize the trading at that point.
Will agree with you, but some people out there maybe think bitcoin income higher than their job. Sometime we see people out from their job and do full bitcoin trading. Moreover something like that they can do, and how about only trading when they at work. Maybe trading at work can be done  like when people work in internet cafe, since they are paid to see the users.

Please see the risk when doing this. Personally, I experience big losses for I couldn't double-check the selling price and accidentally I wrongly put the amount instead of 0.00001BTC, I put it 0.000001BTC... How was devastating and even out of my mind after that? That it serves me a lesson to learn and that is why I'd never do it again.

Of course, most of the people will experience this type of loss because sometimes it is impossible to make a profit at our workplace. In my workplace, I can not able to open the website because our companies will use firewalls, that's why I used to place orders before going to the workplace.

If you want to avoid losing money then you should not place an order before you go to work because the market of cryptocurrency is so volatile and it can bring a lot of losses to you since you are not active and in control of you trade. You should only trade when you are at home so you can watch the market an monitor of something is still in your favor or not.

Trading requires complete attention and large amount of your time. It's a full-fledge job in itself. I don't think it's possible to do day trading while you are at work neither it is recommended. You can be successful once or twice but in the long run trading at the office won't work, your office work may start getting affected due to this.
It is not recommended to trade at work, it needed your full attention, you might get mistake if you do. But I think if you only want to monitor your trade then do it, it is more possible but if you gonna sell or buy coins while working is not good, especially if you want to do a day trading. Your boss might scold you too, and maybe the website you will gonna browse is prohibited in the network of your office.

For you to be trading at your workplace, I guess it depends on the kind of work you do there.
There are jobs that wouldn’t give you an opportunity to be doing another business that doesn’t have anything to do with the company.

Imagine that you’re working an office job in a big company where there are lots of work to do, you wouldn’t be saying things like this. Even if it’s a restaurant that you’re working at as a chef when do you think you will have such a time to be trading cryptocurrency when there are lots of customers trooping in and out of the restaurant? You wouldn’t have such a time and if you try it your employer will get your a$$ fired!

Trading cryptocurrency should be your side job that you do after your day job and that’s when you get home.

Yes, but I only trade from my phoneit since I am too afraid of the work computers. I have checked them for loggers, spywares etc and I think they are clean but you never know.. However, I do use them for other side gigs (e.g. freelancing or to build my own websites) instead of procrastinating when there is nothing else to do. Good thing is I get plenty of idle time so I can make quite an extra nice extra income, for time that would otherwise be wasted !

Sometimes yes Cheesy But I'm my own boss so it's okay. I trade all the time to be honest. And I'm super satisfied that coindeal has finally launched its mobile app, this is something which definitely helps me with daily trading.

I think you didn't get the question here. Of course trading can be done anywhere as long as there are internet connections. But you are at a work place, meaning it's a job and you have to take it seriously because it's where you get the money to feed your family. Unless you're willing to take the risk and be caught or not concentrate on trading, because for me it will take some time and focus so that you will ended up successfully in trading and get a good profits.


In the world of gambling, you cannot skip any time to trade as a trader; we must be aware of the price of the coin we invested. Today I prefer for short term trading so I must be mindful of the transactions happening in the market when I was in my house most of the time I check the market price and then trade and get profit in just an hour. Still, if I'm in our work, I trade if there is free time or break time because we cannot use any gadget in our workplace that is a workplace etiquette and better to use trading to have an extra income, not for a full-time trader.
