All work is boring if you are not happy with it, you can only happily work if you are doing the job you love. If you are bored with trading daily it is better to change it, choose short-term trading and limit monitoring of this market. Personally, I'm also trading daily but I'm not bored because profit makes me satisfied with this job, and I feel more comfortable than my previous office job.

I was like you sitting in front of a computer monitoring the trade charts every day for 20 hours and sleeping for only 4 hours that has been done for 6 years, suddenly I have a pain in the head called vertigo and it really makes my head hurt play, now it's time to be able to enjoy life out socializing and also holidays sometimes make us healthier again, I don't think it's saturating it's just that you need to enjoy life so you don't feel bored, go on vacation or do other activities out there, right now I'm only trade for a certain time where every good moment I trade, at least not every time at the computer again like before because it's not so young anymore, lol

That's boring if you are not making money or if you are making money but you have no satisfaction.
We only love trading when we are challenge and at the same time we enjoy good results, it's like a job and everyone of us wants to do a lot of things as that's a healthy lifestyle but we can only do that if we have money in our wallet and of course we can get that in trading.

let's just say we trade to sacrifice but when we achieve our financial goal, we should think of retirement.

I understand this. Most people complain about the boredom of trading full time at home. I know a friend and he used to do full-time trading at home from a very young age. he manages capital for some family members and his salary + profits per month are around $ 1k. but that's the amount that he feels seldom he has to exchange for too many things like girlfriends, friends and fun. He decided to give up this trade and look for another job. I want to say that we should not trade full time with small capital, it's too waste of time. We should look for another opportunity to get rich and should only trade about 3 hours a day.

One of the biggest cons of full time trading is being alone , boring sitting in front of computer watching charts data all the time from past 6 moths i am almost doing this and now because of this i am not able to focus on trades. i feel like quieting full time trading and go to job so i make some new friends and Socialness

what you guys do to avoid this biggest cons on full time trading
Is full trading required that you will sit in front of the computer for the most of the day?? I don't think so.

I tried to trade too but I didn't tried sitting in front of the computer for 8-9 hours hoping that it will go up. Most people who are doing this are the short time traders I think. You can execute your buy and then set a stop loss or take profit if you want then go out and have a bonding with your friends. There are some exchange apps already that have stop loss and take profit option. Don't waste your time watching those charts. There are more important things to do in life aside from that.

Don't do it full time then. You're clearly lacking the work-life balance. Are you profitable on your trades? If yes then I recommend you don't quit but experiment something instead to kill your boredom. Maybe try to reduce your work time, use it for socializing, working out, etc. See how it goes in a week or two.
In trading, you make money at risk that you earn but have to face risk so it’s not good to leave your work for it. There are so many people who are trading to have proper Income and they get it but it needs knowledge about trading that you must be an expert trader only then you can leave your work for it. Trading has so much to earn but it’s not possible to depend only on trading for lifetimes expenses.

For me, trading is interesting. I love to watch those graphs go up and down. I do not spend whole of my day in front of the computer screen though because it will at the end eat my brain and I will not find it interesting anymore. I always have breaks in between to refresh my mind and concentrate again so that I do not lose any of the price change.

Also, I have set some automatic trading bots so that in the meanwhile I refresh myself I do not bear any loss by missing any price fluctuation. But it is not what we should do the whole day. You should create a timetable for yourself and divide your time accordingly so that you do not have your brain stressed.

Not just trading or doing any kind of work in a haphazard way seems boring but we have to try to keep everything under control. I think it's a big challenge in our work trading our responsibility to tackle trading. Trading for a long time causes a number of humanitarian problems.

I think this depends on that individual.

I mean there are a lot of people who last in their jobs for 40 and 50 years and they never got bored of it. In our country most of the teachers stay at their career for 50 to 60 years, sometimes they kept on teaching. If you have your passion in that career, I guess you can really last and that is the same with trading, though in my case, I don't really like to trade all day, I also want a stable job.

Why not just go out with friends and socialize after like x hrs of trading or so?
That might be a sound idea, but I suspect that day trading tends to select for loners who might not have a rich and active social life to fall back on when they're not glued to the screen.  That certainly might not be true for all of them, but I bet it's true for a lot of them.

I'm not sure I could trade as a full-time job, and it's not just the isolation and eye strain--the market can be a harsh mistress at times, and trading has been known to drive people insane, just like gambling.  Most importantly, it's just a way to make money (if you can do it).  IMO it's much better to have a job where you're actually doing some good in the world and something you enjoy.  Some folks might actually enjoy trading all day long, but not everyone as OP has demonstrated.

And OP, if you actually find trading to be boring I would quit as fast as you can and don't look back. 

I do not get bored in trading because I really love to analyse charts. I more often spending my time in charting and studying than socializing with my friends. I know that what I'm doing right now will lead me to become successful trader. As time passing by, there is a increase in terms of  trading setups that I keep learning. As a full time trader, we should not get bored because there we cannot think properly if we keep saying that trading is boring.

That's true, I often stay home to work and have no intention of going out. Not because I'm lonely, I still have lots of friends, but there's something that I don't like about going out. Usually, I go out with friends only once a week. Trading has a lot to do with a trader's emotions, usually we should go out to release our emotions, but on the contrary, most of us don't want that. We just want to stay and continue if we make a mistake, conversely, if we win, we are more excited and still continue. Even I do not understand myself, I believe so do you.

well,even with music and low alcoholic drinks it's still bored. because i cant talk with anyone.
if u talking about chit-chat on discord or another platfrom,it doesn't matter because i still depressed with a days trading.
but,when u get a profit,its change everything for me,even though just a penny profit.
I guess you need to find another way to cope up your loneliness and stressful days in trading. Learn to take a break so that your mood will get back once you are drained from all day sitting and trading while facing the monitor all day. I know it's too boring especially if you are in a waiting game to do some scalping. Learn how to trade effectively without draining too much energy.
Since we do active trade then we do have all the time if we do really like to stop for a while and wont trade up.
Earning money is good but if you arent happy or stressed too much then it isnt already a good one.It isnt bad
to take a break and set yourself to a peaceful place that would relieved your stress and loneliness.Hang out with
your family and friends and you should set a specific schedule for that one.

it depends on you, if you only focus on doing it yourself then you will be very bored,
you better gather/join a trading community in your city, to add insight, friends, and activities.

For you it is boring but for me it is not. You are not gaining and that is why trading seems boring for you. Trading is for people who have high dedication and treating it as a serious task. Trading requires financial knowledge in order to win and make profit. It's been 6 months and you still see trading as a boring, trading is not for you and you should be careful because it seems that you do not have care about your portfolio.
It is not boring at all, you will learn trading if you will do it everyday and you may analyzes charts. If you really love what you are doing , then you will not be bored, sometimes you may take a break in trading too, so that you will comeup with the new strategies in your head and it will help you too, try atleast 2days break per week and do whatever you wanted.

There’s a problem on how you handle the stress of trading because its not boring at all and its really challenging. If you want to socialize more the full time trading is the best way to do that because you own your time and you can do whatever you want. Full time trading doesn’t mean you do a day trading, you can skip trading for a week and of course it should depend on your paper works on when to sell and when you will buy again.

I am now do long term trading. Not boring because day trading but really stressful for me. And don't know because i am not interested, or not my passion or maybe i am bad in it, after change to long term trading, it is not stressful anymore since i am not really much see bitcoin and ETH price in market since i hold both of that coins.

To make it less stressful you have to start playing with your profits. I know it's hard at first but if you get lucky with one or two good trades withdraw your investment leaving only profit on the exchange. Losing it will not harm your finances and you'll be able to invest more boldly. For me it worked well.

I agree that day trading is boring but so is writing articles translating texts, bounty hunting and many other things. That's why it's called work not pleasure.

You can still do social life if you want and you can also take a break from full time trading at least you have to go on vacation, and also you can still check the market on your smartphone when you are out of the house or other social activities, not always you have to sit in front computer because you have time to go so that you can enjoy the full time trading work that you do.

Everyone has the right to rest, of course, but when the trader rests, his eye is on the phone this time. lol If you feel that way, then you really do not love your job. It is like someone force you to sit behind that desk and do not let you move. After spending a lot of time behind the monitor, even friendships are already behind the monitor. That is why, do as you like, if you are tired of working behind the monitor as a trader all day, engage in something you are not bored with.
