Re: Home office too homely

[Randy <rdsmith5@xxxxxxxx>]

I would say  RB has it about right . Trading out of a home office has 
many challenges and is very dependent on personality type for success. I 
have traded out of my home for the last seven years during that time I 
have also built an addition to our house and landscaped the entire 
property.   point being sitting in front of a pc constantly is boring 
for me, so I trade equities at the close and carry overnight , most days 
I'm out by noon if not sooner.
